Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 1 cup Canned pumpkin puree
- 8 ounces Crushed pineapple (drained)
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 3 units Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 8x4-inch loaf pans or line them with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, crushed pineapple, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
If using, fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts for added texture and flavor.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans, spreading it out gently with a spatula.
Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the pans from the oven and let the bread cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
