VEGAN HUMMINGBIRD BREAD {BANANA, PINEAPPLE & PECAN}

Hello friends and happy FRIDAY! Wheeee! Not like it really matters, mind you, since I’ll be working in the ER all weekend but still. It’s the thought that counts. 😉 Today, I am sharing the latest spin-off on my famous vegan banana bread – Vegan Hummingbird Bread! This yummy treat combines banana bread with pineapple chunks and pecan pieces for an insanely flavorful, super tender treat that will become your new favorite thing! It’s SO good y’all. And so easy to make, too!

So… you know me. I get recipe ideas from all over the place. This particular inspo came from a place we went to for brunch who brought out BANANA BREAD instead of normal bread while we waited for our food! Um. Gamechanger! Where can I petition for all restaurants to bring me quick bread as I wait?! Anyways, they brought us ~normal~ banana bread and then another {better, tastier} kind we just couldn’t quite figure out. Turns out the tasty additions were pineapple chunks which made the bread so soft and delicious! So, mystery solved. I just knew I had to recreate this hummingbird bread at home asap!
