Servings: 10

Ingredients

All-purpose flour (2 cups)
Baking powder (1 teaspoon)
Baking soda (1 teaspoon)
Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
Granulated sugar (1 cup)
Unsalted butter (1/2 cup, melted)
Egg (1, large)
Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)
Ripe bananas (2, mashed)
Canned crushed pineapple (1 cup, drained)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together the mashed bananas, drained crushed pineapple, melted butter, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay.
Transfer the batter into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula to ensure even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve your Pineapple and Banana Bread warm or at room temperature. Enjoy it plain or with a spread of butter for an extra treat!
