How to Make Zucchini Bread With Pineapple

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 5x9 inch loaf pans.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 2 large eggs, 1 cup vegetable oil, 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 tablespoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground cardamom, and ¼ teaspoon ground Chinese ginger.
  4. Gently fold in 2 cups grated zucchini and 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, well-drained.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
  8. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10-15 minutes before inverting them onto wire racks to cool completely.
