Recipe Introduction


A wonderful taste of Paradise....GREAT for gift giving, just bake in mini bread pans.


List of Ingredients




2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 (8 1/4 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup mashed banana (about 3 bananas)*
1/3 cup orange juice (using one of the Dole 100% juice mixes is good, too...especially the orange, mango, peach)*
1/2 cup butter (you can half the amount of butter and add 1/4 cup applesauce to lower fat)*
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 - 2 cups chopped macadamia nuts (walnuts or pecans or no nuts at all work also)*

*Aunty's additions

Recipe



Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Butter a 1 lb loaf pan *(or 3-4 mini loaf pans).

Sift dry ingredients together and set aside. Combine pineapple, banana, and orange juice and set aside.

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and beat well. Add a small amount of the flour mixture alternately with the fruit mixture, mixing only enough to moisten the flour. Stir in the nuts and pour batter into pan(s).

Bake for 1 hr and 15 minutes *(check mini loaves after 35 minutes).

Note: This bread is much better after a day or two.
