These Pineapple Bars are so light and full of crushed pineapple. Every bite will make your mouth happy. Our favorite pineapple dessert recipe!
Hey there! Mandy from Mandy’s Recipe Box back with a delicious Spring treat. These Pineapple Bars are sooo good. There’s just so much to love about them. They are super moist and super easy and super yummy. I love baking with pineapple. These Pineapple Cookies are one of my favorite cookies in the world. Yes, they’re that awesome. And this Pineapple Upside Down Cake for 2? Just do it. I love these Pineapple Bars on their own, but they would be awesome with vanilla ice cream on the side or even drizzled with some caramel sauce.
What are Pineapple Bars?
Pineapple bars are a sweet pineapple dessert – the consistency is almost like a cake, but you cut it into squares and eat it like you would a brownie or a blondie!
I made these for our Memorial Day picnic last weekend and they were gone in a flash. They are super great to take to picnics or BBQ’s in the summer, or to enjoy in the winter when you’re dreaming of warmer days!
If you need to use a can of crushed pineapple, make this. You will not regret it!

Has anyone made these using fresh pineapple?
I just did. I’ll post a picture of the finishing product:)
Any recommendations on the cooking time if I am using an 8×8 pan instead of 9×9? Thank you!
I’m not sure! I would just cook them until the middle seems done. They are kinda gooey though so I wouldn’t try to wait for a fork to come out clean like you would normally!
I totally love pineapple and this sounds great and I can’t wait to try them thank you for sharing your recipe
i love these, they are delicious
Thank you so much!
These pineapple bars are amazing. I just finished baking my “test run,” and my husband and I couldn’t stop tasting! This recipe is light, fruity, and not too sweet, Definitely a keeper!
Oh my goodness you are the sweetest ever! Thank you so much for letting us know!
I made these last week and everyone loved them But how do you cut them neatly?
Than you, Sharon
They are really tricky. The best tip we have is to use a plastic knife!
These are delicious! Thanks for sharing!
What type of flour? All purpose?
Yes, all purpose!
This recipe tastes great, but it didn’t have the texture of a bar or cake. Possibly my pineapple wasn’t drained. I would suggest more flour.
