Ingredients
2 large eggs
1/2 cup melted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple (with juice)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with butter or nonstick spray, then line with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter, sugar, vanilla, and entire can of crushed pineapple including juice.
3. Sift in flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir just until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
5. Bake for 50–60 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden.
6. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Do not drain the pineapple juice—it keeps the bread extra moist and flavorful.
Use a metal loaf pan for even baking and the best golden crust.
Make sure the bread is fully cooled before slicing for clean slices that hold together.
