Recipe Ingredients & Swaps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Ingredients<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n

Flour<\/strong>: All-purpose flour gives the tenderest crumbs. But whole wheat flour will work in a cinch, as it did for my walnut fig banana bread<\/a>. If you want gluten-free Hawaiian banana bread, try buckwheat flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sweetener<\/strong>: Caster sugar was my choice for this recipe for Hawaiian banana bread. Regular granulated sugar, cane sugar, or raw sugar will work too. Brown sugar would complement the bananas superbly and give the bread a darker color and a more caramelized, nutty flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eggs<\/strong>: Give the tropical banana bread structure, binding all the ingredients together and lending richness. To make Hawaiian banana bread vegan, swap eggs with flax eggs. Mix 1 tablespoon of flax seed powder with 3 tablespoons of water to make 1 flax egg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pineapple<\/strong>: Crushed pineapples are easily available in tins, but if you can\u2019t get your hands on them, buy sliced pineapple. Rinse them, drain them, and then pulse the slices in your food processor till you have a coarsely ground texture. Leftover pineapples? Use them to make pineapple sheera<\/a> or coconut pineapple cake<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bananas<\/strong>: Chunky or smoothly mashed, are both perfectly fine for this banana bread recipe with pineapple and coconuts. Pick the texture you prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coconut<\/strong>: Banana bread has enough sweetness from the fruits and added sugar, so the best bet is dried and unsweetened <\/em>shredded coconut. You can substitute them with desiccated coconut. Any leftover coconut? Bake coconut banana bread<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
