This banana bread is moist with just the right amount of sweetness. With the addition of nuts and pineapple how can you go wrong? This recipe came from my mother in-law, and she is quite the baker. We did another recipe of hers for pumpkin cookies with brown sugar icing. Anyway, whenever we make this banana bread it disappears fast. It is simple to make with a handful ingredients.
