🍍 Pineapple Quick Bread
Ingredients
Dry
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 cup granulated sugar
-
1 tsp baking soda
-
½ tsp baking powder
-
½ tsp salt
-
1 tsp ground cinnamon (optional but recommended)
Wet
-
2 large eggs
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
⅓ cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
-
1 (20-oz) can crushed pineapple with juice
-
½ cup chopped nuts (optional — walnuts or pecans work great)
-
½ cup shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment.
-
Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
-
Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl whisk the eggs, vanilla, and oil. Stir in the crushed pineapple with its juice.
-
Combine: Add wet ingredients to dry and mix just until combined. Fold in nuts or coconut if using.
-
Bake: Pour batter into the loaf pan. Bake 55–70 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
-
Cool: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
Tips
-
Sweeter bread? Add 2–3 tbsp brown sugar or drizzle with a simple glaze (powdered sugar + pineapple juice).
-
Moisture level: Pineapple juice amounts can vary—if your batter seems too thick, add 2–3 tbsp more juice or milk.
-
Mix-ins: Raisins, dried cranberries, or white chocolate chips all work well.
