Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup crushed pineapple (with juice)
- ½ cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
- ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In another bowl, beat eggs, then add crushed pineapple with juice, oil, and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until blended (do not overmix).
- Fold in nuts if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Would you like me to also add a quick glaze topping (like pineapple or vanilla glaze) for extra flavor?
