Pineapple Banana Bread

Foodie_Friday_Logo_2

I really do not like icky bananas. You know the type that always end up rotting to mush on your counter before you notice them. Well for all you cottage sisters that are banana challenged, I have the perfect recipe. Pineapple Banana Bread! Sometimes plain old banana bread is boring, maybe even (shhhhh!!!) dry. This recipe is so good and moist and freezes great. DSC02675

Combine all the dry ingredients.

Mash 4 ripe bananas and slightly beat your eggs. Add the oil to the sugar.

Don't forget to drain you can of crushed pineapple!

Add the wet to the dry ingredients. Fold gently and make sure you really incorporate until all the flour is blended.

Evenly pour into your sprayed baking pans.

The finished product! Yum, one for us and one for the freezer. I always wrap well with plastic and then wrap with tin foil. These can keep about 3 months so don't forget to mark the date on the foil.

BANANA AND PINEAPPLE BREAD

3 c. sifted flour
1 1/4 c. sugar
3 beaten eggs
1 1/4 c. vegetable oil

4 lg. mashed bananas
