How to Make Pina Colada Bread Pudding Crock Pot Or Oven

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) or set slow cooker to low.
  2. **Custard:** In a blender, combine 4 large eggs, 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk, 1 (13.5-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup pineapple juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/4 cup light rum (optional), and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.
  3. **Fruit Mixture:** In a medium bowl, gently combine 1 cup raisins and 1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained.
  4. **Slow Cooker Method:** Grease a 6-quart slow cooker. Layer 1/3 of 1 loaf (about 6 cups) cubed day-old challah or brioche bread in the bottom. Top with 1/3 of the raisin-pineapple mixture. Repeat layers twice. Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread, pressing gently to submerge. Dot the top with 2 tablespoons of butter and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, or until heated through and set. If using the slow cooker, check for doneness after 5 hours.
  5. **Oven Method:** Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer 1/3 of the cubed bread in the dish, followed by 1/3 of the raisin-pineapple mixture. Repeat layers twice. Pour the custard mixture over the bread, pressing gently to submerge. Dot with 2 tablespoons butter and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until golden brown and set, covering with foil for the first 30 minutes to prevent over browning.
  6. Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with Grand Marnier sauce (recipe #52907) or pineapple ice cream.
