We love a great bread. We have always loved the sweetness of a blueberry and the tart taste of a pineapple. The combination of the two in a bread is divine. I usually make muffins like this but my kids really enjoy a bread. I decided to try to make a Blueberry Pineapple Bread Recipe to enjoy.

blueberry bread with pineapple

A soft, moist quick bread that blends the tropical sweetness of pineapple with bursts of juicy blueberries. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert with a light icing drizzle.

Ingredients (Makes 2 Loaves)

  • 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 cup milk (rice milk, almond milk, or regular dairy milk all work)
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted (or neutral oil)
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple (with juice)
  • 4 oz (½ cup) plain Greek yogurt (regular yogurt is fine too)
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if frozen, do not thaw)

Optional Icing (for 1 loaf):

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1–2 tablespoons milk or pineapple juice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease or spray two loaf pans (8×4-inch) with non-stick spray, or line with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

3. Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, crushed pineapple (with juice), and yogurt until smooth.

4. Combine
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.

5. Add Blueberries
Fold in the blueberries. If using frozen berries, toss them lightly in a teaspoon of flour before adding to prevent color bleeding.

6. Bake
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

7. Cool
Let loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes.
Remove and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

8. Optional Icing
Whisk together powdered sugar, milk (or pineapple juice), and vanilla until smooth.
Drizzle over one loaf for a dessert-like finish, leaving the other plain for a more breakfast-style bread.

Tips & Variations

* Coconut Twist: Add ½ cup shredded coconut to the batter.
* Nutty Crunch: Fold in ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts.
* Healthier Option: Replace half the flour with whole wheat flour and use honey instead of sugar.
* Make It Muffins: Pour batter into a lined muffin tin and bake at 350°F for 18–22 minutes.

Ingredients
  

  • This will make two loaves
  • 1¾ cup flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp of salt
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 cup milk we use rice milk
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 1 cup of crushed pineapples with the juice is fine
  • 4 oz plain Greek yogurt regular should work too
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions
 

  • You will combine all of the dry ingredients in one bowl. Then you will combine all the wet ingredients in another.
  • I leave the blueberries out until I have combined the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients.  Then you add the blueberries. I always butter the loaf pan or spray them with cooking spray. The loaves will cook at 350 degrees for 45- 55 minutes or until they are golden brown.
  • I let them cool and then I turn them oven to cool on the wire rack for the remaining time. I usually make the icing and apply it to half of the loaf and the other half I leave it off. The is a great bread to grab on the run or a cake if you add the icing.
