Ingredients

• 12 pieces Hawaiian sweet rolls
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 4 pieces Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Crushed pineapple (drained)
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Butter (melted, for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with melted butter.

Step 2

Tear the Hawaiian sweet rolls into bite-sized pieces and evenly distribute them in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together coconut milk, whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined.

Step 4

Fold in the crushed pineapple and shredded coconut into the mixture.

Step 5

Slowly pour the liquid mixture over the bread pieces in the baking dish, ensuring all the bread is well-soaked. Press down gently with a spatula to help the bread absorb the custard.

Step 6

Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes to ensure the bread has fully absorbed the custard.

Step 7

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.

Step 8

Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm as is or with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
