Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ cup raisins
• ¾ cup chopped pecans
• 3 tablespoons butter, softened

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

Beat brown sugar and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, blending the first into the brown sugar mixture before adding the other.

Step 3

Sift flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together in a separate bowl. Stir about half the flour mixture into the brown sugar mixture. Pour pineapple with its juice into the brown sugar mixture and stir; add remaining flour mixture and stir just until a batter forms. Fold pecans and raisins into the batter; pour into prepared loaf pan.

Step 4

Mix white sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl; sprinkle over the batter in the loaf pan.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
