Hawaiian Sweet Roll Stuffing Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat pineapple juice over medium-low temperature until juice reaches about 105°F.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, stir together yeast and 2 tablespoons of sugar.
• Once the pineapple juice is at temperature, add to the bowl. Stir, and let the yeast mixture stand for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
• Once the yeast is foamy, add the remaining sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and eggs; stir to combine.
• Switch from the paddle attachment to the dough hook, and add 3 cups of flour and salt. Stir on low.
• Continue adding flour 1/2 cup at a time until dough clears the sides of the bowl. The dough will feel slightly sticky. It takes 5 1/2 cups of flour for my rolls.
• Once the dough comes together and clears the sides, continue to knead for about 1 minute.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and let it rise until dough has doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Shape dough into rolls. If you would like smaller, dinner-sized rolls, shape into 24 rolls. If you would like larger, bun-sized rolls, shape into 12-18 rolls depending on desired size.
• Cover rolls with plastic wrap, and let rolls rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Toward the end of the second rise, preheat oven to 350°F.
• Bake rolls for about 20 minutes (for dinner-sized rolls), or until rolls are golden brown.
• Immediately brush rolls with butter.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

• Tear the bread by hand into large, bite size pieces and spread out in a single layer on a sheet pan. Place the bread in the oven until it is dry and toasted, about 15 minutes. Remove the bread and place into a large mixing bowl. Mix in the pineapple chunks, cranberries, chestnuts, sage and thyme. Set aside. Cut the sausage into 1/4 inch rounds. In a large sauté pan over medium high heat, add the oil and brown the sausage. Once the sausage is browned, drain any excess fat from the pan and add the onions and celery to the sausage, allowing them to sweat, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 3 minutes. Add the sausage mixture to the bread. Pour the milk and stock over the bread and sausage mixture, stirring to incorporate. Fill each half of a pineapple with the stuffing mixture and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 to 40 minutes or until the top of the stuffing has nicely browned. Serve immediately.
