How to Make Banana Pineapple Nut Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- In a separate bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas. Add 1 cup crushed pineapple (drained), 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, store the Banana Pineapple Nut Bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
