# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Thoroughly drain pineapple chunks to remove excess juice. In a mixing bowl, combine pineapple, sour cream, sugar, and egg. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.

Fold shredded cheddar cheese evenly into the pineapple mixture to balance sweetness with savory flavor.
03 -
Grease a casserole dish lightly. Pour the pineapple and cheese mixture into the dish, spreading evenly for consistent flavor distribution.

Combine crushed crackers with melted butter in a small bowl, mixing until crumbs are fully coated. Evenly sprinkle the topping over the pineapple base in the dish.

Preheat oven to 175°C. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and filling is bubbling. Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
