In a large mixing bowl, combine crushed pineapple with its juices, sugar, eggs, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Stir until well incorporated.

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Dot the surface with small pats of butter and sprinkle with cinnamon for a warm, aromatic finish.
