6
In another bowl, combine the eggs, oil, mashed bananas, pineapple, vanilla and honey (if you're using Splenda) Stir lightly just to mix.
7
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix only enough to moisten the dry.

DO NOT overmix or your bread will be tough and heavy.

Its ok to have some lumps.
10
Spoon the dough into the two pans,making sure to divide it equally between the two.
11
Bake for about 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes.

A good rule of thumb is to check after about 50 minutes.
13
Insert a toothpick or bamboo skewer into the center to test for doneness.
14
This bread will crack--don't worry.
15
Once done, remove to wire racks and cool for about 10-12 minutes in pans.
16
Turn the bread out carefully onto the racks.
17
Allow it to sit for about 15 minutes upside down, then carefully turn right side up to finish cooling.
18
As with any bread, slice with a serrated knife and enjoy.
19
Just a note--if you use Splenda or any artificial sweetener, the shelf life will be shorter and texture may not be the same than if you had used real sugar.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
