• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Stir in the crushed pineapple, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until fully blended.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

If using, fold in the chopped nuts to the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice and enjoy your Pineapple Banana Sweet Bread plain or with a spread of butter or cream cheese.
