Escape to paradise with this moist and flavorful Hawaiian Banana Bread! The combination of ripe bananas, sweet crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut creates a tender loaf that’s perfect for breakfast, snacking, or dessert. Serve it warm, topped with butter, or pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a tropical indulgence.

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1/2 tsp baking soda
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 1/2 cup butter, softened
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 2 eggs
    • 1 very ripe banana, mashed
    • 1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple in juice (not drained)
    • 1/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut

    Instructions

    1. Prepare the Pan and Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease a loaf pan with non-stick spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    2. Cream the Butter and Sugar:

    • In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer on low speed to cream together the softened butter and sugar until smooth and creamy.

    3. Add the Wet Ingredients:

    • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing gently after each addition.
    • Mix in the mashed banana and the crushed pineapple (including the juice) until well blended.

    4. Combine the Dry Ingredients:

    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

    5. Mix the Batter:

    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread light and tender.
    • Stir in the shredded coconut until evenly incorporated.

    6. Bake the Bread:

    • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
    • Bake for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

    7. Cool and Serve:

    • Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan before removing it. Once cooled, slice into thick pieces and enjoy.
