Step-by-Step Guide to Pineapple Perfection

Preparation:

1. Preheat your oven to a cozy 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius), and lightly grease a 9×9 inch baking dish to ensure nothing sticks.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed pineapple (juice included), eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. This mixture is the heart of the dessert, where all the flavors begin to meld together. Stir until the mixture is well combined, ensuring the sugar and cornstarch are fully dissolved.
3. Carefully pour the pineapple mixture into your prepared baking dish. This is where your dessert starts to take shape.
4. To finish, evenly sprinkle the top with ground cinnamon and dot with slices of butter. These final touches will add layers of flavor and a beautiful golden finish.

Baking:

• Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes. What you’re looking for is a delightful golden edge around your dessert, signaling it’s perfectly baked and ready to be enjoyed.

Serving Suggestion

This Pineapple Delight is best served warm, with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. The contrast between the warm, tangy pineapple and the cold, sweet ice cream creates a symphony of flavors and temperatures, making every bite an exquisite experience.
