Ingredients

• 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 0.5 cups Warm water
• 0.5 cups Pineapple juice
• 0.25 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 Egg
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 0.5 cups Crushed pineapple (drained)
• 0.25 cups Sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 2

In a small bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix together the pineapple juice, melted butter, and the egg. Add this mixture, along with the yeast mixture, to the dry ingredients.

Step 4

Stir until a sticky dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and drained crushed pineapple. Set aside.

Step 7

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into small, golf ball-sized pieces.

Step 8

Grease a bundt pan thoroughly. Roll each piece of dough into a ball, dip into the pineapple-sugar mixture, and layer them into the bundt pan. Sprinkle the shredded coconut evenly throughout the layers.

Step 9

Once all the dough balls are in the pan, cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Step 10

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the bubble bread for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 11

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate.

Step 12

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the warm bread before serving.
