recipe ingredients

2. wet ingredients – Add butter, eggs, buttermilk, crushed pineapple, vanilla extract, and optionally a little rum to create a smooth dough that creates a delicious final product with the perfect balance of sweet and sour.

4. increase spices. Feel free to add other tropical flavors to this bread, like cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cardamom, or lime zest. 🏝️

tips and tricks

1. Make sure the pineapple is well drained to avoid excess water. Too much water will affect the texture of the bread.
2. Don’t you have baking powder? Make your own using 1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
3. If you are worried about the bread sticking, line the bread pan with parchment paper.
4. For best results, let the butter and eggs come to room temperature.
5. Over-mixing can make the bread too thick. Mix until just combined to keep it light and airy.
6. Ovens vary depending on the model, so check for doneness after about 30 minutes. Insert a toothpick into the center. It should come out clean once the bread is baked.
7. To prevent the glaze from melting, allow the bread to cool completely before applying the glaze.

How to prepare and store

Store leftover pineapple bread properly at room temperature for up to 3 days. For long-term storage, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 week or freeze for 3 to 4 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
