Bread Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large egg (beaten)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 20 oz can crushed pineapple, drained (reserve 2–3 tablespoons of juice for the glaze)
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 2–3 tablespoons reserved pineapple juice
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard bread pan and set aside.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth and creamy.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the sour cream, followed by the drained crushed pineapple.
- Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into the prepared bread pan. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar and reserved pineapple juice until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more juice if needed.
- Glaze and Serve: Drizzle the glaze over the completely cooled bread. Slice and enjoy!
