Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 (8 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
- 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a large bowl, beat the sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined. Stir in the crushed pineapple and sour cream (or yogurt).
- Incorporate dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the chopped nuts, if using.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
