Pineapple Raisin Grapenuts Bread Recipe
This "bread" is more like a dessert. It's an easy quick bread. It's dense, moist and cake like. It's great for breakfast, an after school snack and even dessert. The recipe calls for 1 cup of packed brown sugar which can be replaced with Splenda brown sugar. I like to make it in a pie plate and serve it in small wedges but it is a loaf bread. If you make it in a 9x5 loaf pan increase baking time to 40-50 mins. using a toothpick to test.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Grapenuts cereal
- 1 cup of raisins
- 1 8oz can Pineapple tidbits (or chunks cut in half) reserve 2-3 tbsp of juice, drain the rest
