Got bananas?  I usually do.  Which means in a few days, I’ll have several sitting on the counter that are just a little too sugar-spotted to eat.  Which also means they are perfect for some kind of recipe.**  And this is my favorite old-banana recipe ’cause it’s special.  It has pineapple, too.

Fruity, super moist, and unique, this Hawaiian Bread takes bananas and waaayyy over the top.

Once upon a long time ago, a friend of ours gave me this recipe that he had created on his own.  This is my slightly altered version.  Thanks, Dean. (In case he ever reads my blog and wants credit).

3/4 tsp. salt,

and 1 tsp of soda.

Mix these well.

3 beaten eggs

1 cup oil (I use 1/2 c. unrefined coconut oil (like this)–melted–and 1/2 c. applesauce to substitute for the cup of oil)
