Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 50 mins
Total Time: 1 hrs
Cuisine: Gluten-Free
Serves: 1 loaf
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with a little vegetable oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the bread.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well mixed.
- In another bowl, beat 2 eggs until they are light and frothy. Add in 1/4 cup of vegetable oil and 1/2 cup of drained crushed pineapple. Mix these wet ingredients together until they are well combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Once the batter is mixed, pour it into the prepared loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top if necessary.
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- After baking, remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the bread has cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy your gluten-free pineapple bread as a delightful snack or breakfast option!
Tips
- • Drain the pineapple thoroughly to prevent excess moisture from making your bread soggy • Use a high-quality gluten-free flour blend for the best texture and rise • Don't overmix the batter—gentle mixing preserves the bread's tender crumb • Check doneness with a toothpick at 45 minutes, as gluten-free breads can be more delicate • Let the bread cool completely before slicing to help it set and maintain structure • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer preservation
