- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, undrained
- ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the melted butter, vanilla extract, and crushed pineapple with its juice.
Assemble the Batter:
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. If using, fold in the chopped walnuts for extra crunch.
Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve:
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature!
