Step-by-Step Instructions for Pineapple Coconut Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your loaf pan by greasing it generously.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and shredded coconut.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, buttermilk, and crushed pineapple until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
  5. Transfer the batter into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake for 55-60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  7. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cooled, slice the bread and serve fresh or toasted.
