Pineapple Coconut Bread
I love anything with pineapple, and this pineapple coconut sweet loaf is no exception.
The pineapple and coconut flavors together combine perfectly for what will feel like a slice of cake, packaged into a sweet mini loaf of bread.
It’s easy to whip together in about 10 minutes, including toasting the coconut, making this recipe really easy.
I love making bread in mini loaf pans. It cuts down the cooking time and makes them easier to share.
It’s perfect that I can make just one recipe and give a mini loaf to a neighbor or friend. Or, we’ll share the first loaf after it cools and still have leftovers untouched!
When you are longing to be in Hawaii – make up a batch of this Pineapple & Coconut bread and enjoy a mini escape from the daily routines.
