Pineapple Banana Bread Is A Flavor Packed Twist On A Classic!

You all know how much I love banana bread. It’s just one of those great recipes that is easy, that everyone loves, and can be transformed into so many different flavor versions the possibilities seem endless! I’ll tell you, I’ve made quite a few recipes here on my site, and they are all different, unique, and most importantly delicious! I actually am not a huge banana fan…I don’t eat them raw at all, and don’t even get me started on banana flavored candy. There is a special place in the depths of purgatory for the inventor of that tragic trend. But in bread? Yes please sign me up times 100.

Today’s version of the classic takes a little bit of a tropical turn. I’ve added in crushed pineapple, and it adds the most perfect subtle sweetness and moisture! Even for those who don’t love pineapple (myself included) this is still a winner of a recipe. The pineapple flavor isn’t overpowering at all, it’s mild and subdued and pairs beautifully with the ripe bananas.

Tips On Making Perfect Banana Bread:

What Else Can I Add?

Coconut – Try adding 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut to amp up the tropical vibes! Nuts – Walnuts, Pecans, or even Macadamia Nuts would be great in this recipe! Extracts – You can add in almond extract, coconut extract, or even a rum extract would be great in this recipe! Roasted Bananas – Of you want to take the banana flavor one step further, try roasting your bananas for a more intense flavor. Sprinkle them with a little brown sugar, and roast for about 20 minutes. You will need to use more “freckled” bananas to do this step, as opposed to brown, mushy bananas, as they will get plenty soft in the roasting process.

Enjoy this extra special banana bread recipe anytime of the year, but I especially love it during the summer months! It somehow seems ok to eat by the pool if you throw in pineapple. I mean, I’m not even opposed to serving this with a frosty Pina Colada with a little straw umbrella!
