In a small bowl, combine the active dry yeast and warm water, stirring gently. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the yeast mixture to the pineapple juice mixture, stirring to combine.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, no-sodium baking powder, and baking soda.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and shape it into a round loaf or divide into rolls, placing them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Cover the dough again and let rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the bread for approximately 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing. Enjoy your homemade low sodium Hawaiian bread!
