Southern Pineapple Casserole
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 30 min. + standing
YIELD: 8 servings.
When I make pineapple casserole, I double the amount —because guests frequently request a second helping for dessert! Sweet-tangy fruit is even better combined with savory cheddar cheese and buttery cracker crumb topping. —Catherine Ann Goza, Leland, North Carolina
