📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.

3. In a separate medium bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Stir in the crushed pineapple, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until fully blended.

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.

5. If using, fold in the chopped nuts to the batter.

6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

7. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

9. Slice and enjoy your Pineapple Banana Sweet Bread plain or with a spread of butter or cream cheese.
