		This recipe was submitted by "MamaMia" who has contributed many great recipes to the site including her super well-reviewed Mashed Potato Pancakes.  This afternoon (3/2/13), I decided to finally try her Pineapple French Toast and I'm glad I did.  I had to adjust the recipe slightly for an 11 x 8-inch pan.  I reduced the number of bread slices to 4 and cut the milk to 1 cup.  I also added 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla to the egg mixture.  Other than that, I made it as stated. This French toast is fantastic! It's sweet and buttery.  The pineapple makes a big impact on the overall flavor.  This dish is a winner.  I hope you try it.6 white bread slices (slightly stale is preferred)
1 8-ounce can crushed pineapple - drained
2 large eggs
1 and 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup butter or margarine - melted
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
 
 
 
  
 
 How To Make Baked Pineapple French Toast
 
 Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
 
 In a medium bowl, combine butter, sugar and pineapple. Spread on bottom of a lightly greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Top with bread.
 
 Clean the bowl and re-use to beat eggs with milk and salt. Pour mixture over bread.
 
 Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes or until the top starts to brown.
 
 Cool for a few minutes and carefully invert onto a serving platter.
 
 Cut into 6 pieces and serve warm.  No maple syrup necessary.
 
 
 
   
 
 
   
 
 Note: If desired, you can assemble everything in the baking pan and refrigerate it for a few hours (or even overnight) before baking it.
 
 
 
  
 
  
 You invert this French toast onto a platter like a Pineapple Upside-Down Cake.  My family loves this.  I hope yours does too!
