We have enjoyed this all winter long. I made this last summer and didn't want to review it until I had tried it. I also agree it is milder then regular pineapple but once baked you can't tell the difference. It does give off a faint odor that will give it away. I used this to make Recipe#429064 and it made for a milder pineapple taste but still great!

Thanks for pointing me in the direction of this recipe! I made 2 batches today. I was eating the "pineapple" as I was filling the jars. Mmmmmmm! I ended up with 22 half pints and quite a bit of juice leftover. I ended up processing the juice in the waterbath for 15 minutes as well. I can't wait to pop open a jar the next time I need pineapple. Thanks for sharing!
