Pineapple Quick Bread Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ cups All-purpose Flour
• ⅛ tsp Salt
• ½ cup Butter, softened
• 1 cup Crushed Pineapple, drained (liquid reserved)
• 2 Large Eggs
• ¼ cup Pineapple Liquid (from crushed pineapple can)
• ¼ cup Granulated Sugar
• 2 tbsp Milk
• 2 tsp Baking Powder

For the Glaze:

• 2 tbsp Pineapple Liquid (from crushed pineapple can)
• 1 cup Confectioners Sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder to ensure uniformity.
3. Prepare the Wet Ingredients: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and granulated sugar. Beat them together until achieving a smooth consistency.
4. Incorporate Eggs: Add the eggs into the butter and sugar mixture, mixing thoroughly.
5. Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually alternate between adding the reserved ¼ cup of pineapple liquid and the previously sifted dry ingredients into the mixture, ensuring they integrate seamlessly.
6. Add Milk: Integrate the milk into the mixture.
7. Incorporate Pineapple: Delicately fold in the crushed pineapple into the batter.
8. Baking: Transfer the batter into a greased loaf pan and spread it uniformly. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 50-55 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cooling: Allow the loaf to cool for 10-15 minutes within the pan, then transfer it to a cooling rack to finish the cooling process.
10. Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the glaze ingredients, ensuring a smooth consistency.
11. Glazing: Drizzle the glaze over the fully cooled loaf. Let the glaze set before serving.
