Luscious Banana Pineapple Pecan Bread

Ingredients:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 bananas)
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
½ cup chopped pecans, plus extra for topping
½ cup chopped walnuts
½ cup diced pineapple chunks for topping
Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Stir in the mashed bananas and crushed pineapple until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Fold in the chopped pecans and walnuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Top with the diced pineapple chunks and extra pecans.
Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
