Deliciously moist loaves chocked full of goodness. Great as a snack or tucked into lunch boxes. We loved this with our morning coffee. The ingredients are most often in my pantry/fridge so I can whip this up on a whim. Enjoy!

Texture, shape, and moistness of this quick bread were all very good. But we thought the loaf had too many competing flavors. The peanut butter tasted too prominent and the cardamom was distracting. This is a good recipe that could be improved with a little fine tuning.

    I had to bake this much longer as the toothpick just did not come out clean but when i finally cut the bread i realized that the pinapple chunks made it much too moist. I should have cut them smaller i guess. I also found the bread too sweet and far too rich to call it a bread really, sorry.

    The pineapple, pumpkin and cardamom got lost in this. Peanut butter took over. This would be good with chocolate chips adding sweetness and some creaminess. The texture was crumble and a bit dry. Perhaps because of the overuse of baking powder. I would cut back on the baking powder to 1 teaspoon. I found it a bit salty tasting as well. Sorry I really hoped this would be good but the squirrels and birds enjoyed it. A nice try!

    I think this bread has real potential but I would need to make some changes to suit my family's tastes. We felt the peanut butter was a bit overpowering as written and the bread as a whole was too dry. We tried it, about a slice each, but it ended up in the trash. I think it was a good use of contest ingredients though and I may make it again. I would like to try cutting down the peanut butter, adding some brown sugar & use much smaller pineapple pieces. Thanks for sharing your creation! Made for RSC Lucky #13.
