Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • ½ cup crushed pineapple, drained
  • ½ cup shredded coconut
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts or macadamia nuts (optional)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Pan:

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

  • Mix the Dry Ingredients:

    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

  • Combine the Wet Ingredients:

    • In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until smooth.

  • Add the Bananas, Pineapple, and Coconut:

    • Stir in the mashed bananas, crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut until well combined.

  • Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients:

    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. If using, fold in the chopped walnuts or macadamia nuts.

  • Bake the Bread:

    • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Cool and Serve:

    • Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
    • Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For added flavor, sprinkle a little extra shredded coconut on top of the batter before baking.
  • This bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • Freeze slices individually for a quick and delicious snack later.
