Ingredients:

For the bread:

Ingredient Quantity
Salt 1/2 teaspoon
Butter 3/4 cup, softened
Pineapple (crushed) 1 cup, drained
Eggs 2 large
All-purpose flour 1 1/4 cups
Pineapple juice 1/4 cup
Granulated sugar 1/4 cup
Milk 2 tablespoons
Baking powder 1/2 teaspoon

For the Glaze:

Ingredient Quantity
Pineapple liquid 2 tablespoons (from a can of crushed pineapple)
Confectioners sugar 1 cup
Vanilla extract 1 teaspoon

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
  2. Prepare the Wet Ingredients:
    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the drained pineapple and pineapple juice.
  3. Combine the Dry Ingredients:
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Add Milk:
    • Stir in the milk until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  5. Pour the Batter:
    • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
  6. Bake the Bread:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
  7. Cool the Bread:
    • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Prepare the Glaze:
    • In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners sugar, pineapple liquid, and vanilla extract until smooth and slightly runny.
  9. Glaze the Bread:
    • Once the bread has cooled completely, drizzle the glaze over the top. Let the glaze set before slicing and serving.
