The other day I noticed that the bananas had ripened beyond the point of eating fresh so instead of making plain old banana bread I decided to add a bit of pineapple to the mix and banana pineapple bread. This recipe turned out so moist and delicious. I hate to admit this but it was gone in just two days. I’m not suppose to have yummy goodness like this, but my resistance was low and I couldn’t stop myself.

I just have to show off how perfect this bread turned out. I’m convinced this is due to my new Maytag oven. Normally, my banana bread would be burned on the bottom and not cooked in the middle. This one though, this one turned out absolutely perfect!

BANANA PINEAPPLE BREAD INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3/4 cups vegetable oil
1 cup mashed ripe banana (2-3 overly ripe bananas)
1 can (8 oz.) crushed pineapple, drained
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans, optional

BANANA PINEAPPLE BREAD DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a loaf pan and dust with flour or you can just spray with cooking spray.

In a bowl, combine dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. In another bowl combine wet ingredients: eggs, vanilla, vegetable oil, banana, pineapple. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients until moistened. Stir in chopped nuts if desired and then pour into prepared loaf pan.

Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes in the pan and then remove from pan and let completely cool on a wire rack.

  1. I just made this and had to come comment, it is delicious! I used only half the oil and used unsweetened applesauce to make up for the difference, and it is so good, I don’t think it’s going to last through the day!

  2. Blueberries!!! I was thinking of actually adding all 3 when I make it today!

  3. Medeja- that is exactly what I was going for. Thanks for stopping by.

  4. What a wonderful bread! Makes me think about a lovely sunny day on a beach under a palm tree 😀

  5. Hi Lori, I think fresh pineapple would taste just as great.

  6. Karen, those sound like great additions. I’m going to give that a try!

  7. plumped raisins & sweetened coconut are good ad ins & I think they would be extra great with the pineapple!

    This looks incredible. And 2 of my favorite fruit. Do you think fresh pineapple would be okay? I can not bring myself to buy canned anymore.
    Thanks and blessings,
