Pineapple Zucchini Bread is a moist and flavorful sweet bread that gets it’s moistness from the zucchini and flavor from the pineapple. I like this for breakfast or served as a dessert.
Pineapple Zucchini Bread
This recipe makes two loaves, I added chopped pecans to the top of one of the loaves.
Creamy butter is a perfect topping.
This bread freezes well for up to one month. Eat one loaf now and freeze one for later.

Notes
You can freeze this bread. Wrap in plastic wrap, then in foil. It will keep up to one month in the freezer.

I’m really excited to try this, I just love pineapple. Because of its high acidity, it can be tricky to work with and bake with. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us and taking the guess work out of it!
