I was with a woman the other day who mentioned she came up with a pineapple bread pudding. From the moment she told me about that, I could not get it out of my mind. I LOVE pineapple upside down cake, and I love bread pudding, so I thought I would come up with a combination of the two. I took a recipe from Paula Deen for bread pudding and tweaked it until I came up with this recipe. Oh my…it was so delicious!! In fact, it may just be my favorite bread pudding I have ever had (and I have had quite a few in my life!!). The pineapple and coconut together was a perfect pair. The caramel sauce with a hint of pineapple and coconut was amazing! Top it off with real whipped cream and this is a dessert sent from heaven. I served it to my entire family on vacation and we all were oohing and awing at how incredible this dessert was. If you love pineapple and you love a rich and sweet dessert, this is the one for you! Hope you enjoy 😉
