Ingredients
  • 18 KING'S HAWAIIAN Original Sweet Dinner Rolls, cut into ½"-1" cubes
  • 1 Cup crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 can of mandarin oranges, drained
  • ¾ Cup half and half
  • ½ Cup melted butter
  • ¾ Cup of brown sugar
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 4 teaspoons coconut extract
  • ¾ Cup shredded sweetened coconut, plus extra for topping if desired
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
  2. In a large mixing bowl combine eggs, half and half, brown sugar, coconut extract and stir together to blend well.
  3. In a second large bowl add bread cubes.
  4. Pour melted butter over bread cubes.
  5. Pour egg mixture over bread cubes and gently toss to evenly coat.
  6. Add crushed pineapple and mandarin oranges to bread cubes and gently combine all ingredients.
  7. Divide bread mixture into paper lined muffin tin. I used parchment paper cups.
  8. Sprinkle additional shredded coconut on top of each muffin if desired.
  9. Bake muffins in oven for 40-45 minutes, or until each muffin is firm in the center and toasty, golden brown on top. An inserted knife into the center of a muffin should also come out clean.
  10. Remove muffins from oven and let stand for 5 minutes to cool slightly before serving.
  11. Muffins can be served warm or room temperature.
