Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread sweetened flaked coconut and macadamia nuts on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for 7-8 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
- Drain the crushed pineapple in a fine mesh colander, squeezing gently with a clean cloth to remove excess juice.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, beaten eggs, plain Greek yogurt, pure vanilla extract, and pure rum extract until smooth.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just moistened. Add the toasted coconut, chopped macadamia nuts, and drained crushed pineapple, stirring just until combined.
- Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan. Sprinkle remaining toasted coconut on top and bake for 40-50 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 45-60 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Let it cool completely.
