Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a loaf pan by greasing it.

  3. Whisk together 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, 1 can of crushed pineapple (drained), 1/2 cup of pineapple juice, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract in a separate bowl.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to over-mix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
