Zucchini Pineapple Bread Recipe – My Favorite!

This recipe for Zucchini Pineapple Bread is one of my favorite ways to eat zucchini! I love the combination of zucchini with crushed pineapple, grated carrots, and raisins. I started with another recipe I found online several years ago, but I didn’t follow the recipe exactly. This recipe makes a large batch of bread, but you may halve the recipe if that is too much.

These tender, yummy loaves of bread go fast! You can divide everything in half and bake just two loaves if you like, but I wanted some to put in the freezer.

Don’t Waste Those Zucchinis!

Many people dread those seasonal offerings of zucchini that gardeners try to give away. I do get a little tired of zucchini by the end of summer sometimes, but whenever I have extra I freeze it or do some yummy baking! If you have time, bake a batch of zucchini bread and freeze several loaves for later. Wrap cooled loaves well to prevent freezer burn and label them with contents and date.

To freeze enough for a batch of zucchini bread – grate zucchini, measure into 1-cup increments, and fill freezer containers. You’ll have just the right amount of grated squash for your recipes in the winter! If your favorite recipe calls for another measurement, go ahead and fill your freezer containers with that amount of grated zucchini. Be sure to label your containers with the contents and date!

I also enjoy making Zucchini FrittersCarrot Zucchini Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting, and Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread. My friend Kathi from Oakhill Homestead has even more ideas for using up your zucchini harvest!

  1. I can’t believe there are no comments about the fact that the directions say to add eggs but there aren’t any listed in the ingredients.
    I’d love to try this so I’m hoping you can edit the recipe for us.
    Thanks, Elaine
