Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt, and instant yeast.
In a separate bowl, combine the pineapple juice, warm water, honey, eggs, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients while stirring with a wooden spoon or hand mixer. Mix until you have a smooth batter with no visible lumps.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the pan with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes or until it has slightly doubled in size.
Once risen, place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve once cooled. Enjoy your delicious Low Fat Gluten Free Hawaiian Bread with your favorite toppings.
