"Our four kids like slices of this moist tropical-tasting banana bread for breakfast," comments Mary Watkins of Chaska, Minnesota. "I sometimes bake it in mini loaf pans, then freeze the loaves so we can enjoy a small portion at a time."

I didn't have enough time to make a loaf so I made them into muffins. It took half the time to bake and they were delicious.

I cooked this recipe according to directions, however the bottom of the bread stuck to the pan. I've recently heard you should put a piece of parchment paper or waxed paper in the bottom of the pan even if you have greased and floured it to prevent sticking. My mother used waxed paper to line the bottom of her cake pans years ago .

The added pineapple kept the bread moist. Makes me mad when my banana bread turn out dry. Great addition! I think next time I will cut the sugar in half. It was too sweet for me. Thanks for sharing this recipe. It's a keeper.
