Ingredients

1 cup sugar
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups grated sharp cheddar
2 (20-ounce) cans pineapple chunks, drained, and 6 tablespoons pineapple juice reserved
1 cup cracker crumbs (recommended: Ritz)
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted, plus extra for greasing pan

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Grease a medium-size casserole dish with butter.

In a large bowl, stir together the sugar and flour. Gradually stir in the cheese. Add the drained pineapple chunks, and stir until ingredients are well combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish.

In another medium bowl, combine the cracker crumbs, melted butter, and reserved pineapple juice, stirring with a rubber spatula until evenly blended. Spread crumb mixture on top of pineapple mixture. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.

a Taste Sensation **DivaLicious * !
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I first had this at a dinner party buffet & it was an absolute New Taste sensation. Everyone was asking what it was & the... guys kept sneaking over & lingering around the casserole picking at it b/c you just couldn't stay out of it... sooo good. My friend took it to her husband's holiday work potluck and it got the same response.. what is this? who made this? can I get the recipe??! Make sure you use a good quality cheddar cheese that melts is my only advise so it turns out perfect everytime!Read more

Family Reunion Favorite Pineapple Casserole
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

why is everyone so shocked that pineapple is good with cheese? Pineapple has been served on pizza for YEARS and of course... that is covered with cheese! this is a dish that has been a favorite of mine at TN family reunions for as long as i can remember. i've seen other versions with no sugar or flour added and they are just wonderful too. i'm glad Paula is getting the word out about this. you could always use less butter too, not just less flour or sugar.Read more
