We loved this. I made this into 24 muffins. They were done in 15 minutes. My littlest will not eat a muffin without having either a glaze, cinnamon sugar or crumb topping. So with him in mind I made a little glaze with 3/4 c powdered sugar, about 2 T of pineapple juice and a few drops of coconut extract. He ate two without blinking. Pretty good considering he hates bananas and pineapple! I made these last night and at the end of breakfast today we only had 5 left. I made these for PAC Fall 2009 and I will be making them again.

I made this recipe for PAC Spring 2009. This tea bread was delicious! The texture was somewhere in between a quick bread and a cake. I enjoyed it because it was not overly sweet and the flavors of coconut, banana, and pineapple were subtle and not overpowering. I think that next time I might add some nuts-either chopped macadamias to go along with the Hawaiian theme or walnuts. This is a recipe that is a definite keeper and I will use it again. For those of you who like a sweeter bread, I might suggest making a simple glaze to drizzle over it, but it was just fine for me and my family!
