Hummingbird Bread Recipe
Description This moist and fluffy Hummingbird Bread is loaded with pineapple and ripe banana! Laced with warm spices and studded with toasted pecans, you’ll love everything about this luscious breakfast loaf. Ingredients 2 cups (260g) all-purpose flour 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg 1/4 cup (56g) unsalted butter, melted 1/4 cup vegetable oil 3/4 cup (168g) packed light brown sugar 2 large eggs 1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (about 3 large ripe bananas) 8 oz can crushed pineapple, with juice 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 cup (53g) chopped pecans, toasted
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×5 loaf pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
3. In a large mixer bowl, combine the melted butter, oil and brown sugar.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined before adding the next.
5. Add the mashed bananas and mix until combined.
6. Add the pineapple with juice and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
7. Add the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Do not over mix or you’ll end up with tough bread.
8. Gently fold in the chopped pecans.
9. Add the batter to the prepared pan and bake for 60-70 minutes. To test for doneness, a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf should come out clean. If the loaf starts to brown too much on top, tent it with some aluminum foil.
10. Remove loaf from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan. Slice and serve when ready.
