Servings: 10 servings Calories: 314kcal Prep 5 minutes Cooking 1 hour Cooling Time 10 minutes Total Time 1 hour 15 minutes
Pin Recipe Share on Facebook Ingredients US CustomaryMetric1x2x3x▢ 3 large bananas (browned, overripe)▢ 20 ounce crushed pineapple (or tidbits - 1 can, drained)▢ ½ cup butter (melted and cooled - 1 stick butter)▢ 2 large eggs (room temperature)▢ ½ cup sugar▢ ½ cup light brown sugar (packed)▢ 1 tablespoon vanilla extract▢ 1 ½ teaspoon baking soda▢ 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
InstructionsPreheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a loaf pan.Place the peeled overripe bananas (2-3 large bananas or 3-4 medium bananas) into a large mixing bowl and mash using a fork or masher. Add the drained crushed pineapple, which will yield approximately 1 cup of pineapple. Then add the ½ cup of melted butter and mix.To the wet mixture, add the 2 large eggs, ½ cup each of granulated sugar and packed light brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract. Mix to combine.Mix in the 1 ½ teaspoons of baking soda into the wet mixture, then add the 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour and mix just enough so that the flour is fully combined into the batter.Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan and bake in the middle of the center oven rack (or down one notch to prevent the top of the loaf from cracking). Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 55-65 minutes. *Check your loaf at 50 minutes of baking to make sure that it is not browning too rapidly. Cover with a loose square of aluminum foil if needed.Remove from the oven when done and allow the pineapple banana bread loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then either serve warm or transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely before storing. Equipment You May NeedMixing BowlSilicone Spatula SetLoaf Pan NotesStore any leftover pineapple banana bread on the countertop in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. In general, this is the best and easiest way to store any banana bread. If wrapped securely in cling film, then stored in an airtight container, your banana bread can last in the refrigerator for a week and possibly longer. Because of the high fruit content of this quick bread, keeping it in the fridge is my preferred method of storage.

InstructionsPreheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a loaf pan.Place the peeled overripe bananas (2-3 large bananas or 3-4 medium bananas) into a large mixing bowl and mash using a fork or masher. Add the drained crushed pineapple, which will yield approximately 1 cup of pineapple. Then add the ½ cup of melted butter and mix.To the wet mixture, add the 2 large eggs, ½ cup each of granulated sugar and packed light brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract. Mix to combine.Mix in the 1 ½ teaspoons of baking soda into the wet mixture, then add the 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour and mix just enough so that the flour is fully combined into the batter.Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan and bake in the middle of the center oven rack (or down one notch to prevent the top of the loaf from cracking). Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 55-65 minutes. *Check your loaf at 50 minutes of baking to make sure that it is not browning too rapidly. Cover with a loose square of aluminum foil if needed.Remove from the oven when done and allow the pineapple banana bread loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then either serve warm or transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely before storing. Equipment You May NeedMixing BowlSilicone Spatula SetLoaf Pan NotesStore any leftover pineapple banana bread on the countertop in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. In general, this is the best and easiest way to store any banana bread. If wrapped securely in cling film, then stored in an airtight container, your banana bread can last in the refrigerator for a week and possibly longer. Because of the high fruit content of this quick bread, keeping it in the fridge is my preferred method of storage.
