Name: Hawaiian Holiday Bread
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 35 min
Total time: 2 h 25 min
Yield: 1 loaf (about 12 slices)
Cuisine: Hawaiian
Ingredients: 3 cups all-purpose flour; 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast; 1/2 cup warm water; 1/2 cup sugar; 1/2 cup pineapple juice; 2 eggs; 1/3 cup butter, melted; 1 teaspoon salt; 1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts; 1/2 cup shredded coconut; 1/2 cup chopped dried pineapple

Instructions

In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, pineapple juice, eggs, melted butter, and salt. Mix well. Add the proofed yeast mixture and stir to combine.
Gradually add the flour to the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Incorporate the macadamia nuts, shredded coconut, and chopped dried pineapple into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cover the loaf with a towel and let it rise again for about 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the Hawaiian Holiday Bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Once baked, transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Serve slices with butter or as an accompaniment to your favorite hot beverage.
