Grandma got this recipe from my favorite aunt. Its moist and delicious. Be sure you do not over-bake it because it can dry out too much if you do.

    In small bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar with 3 tablespoons reserved pineapple juice and mix well. Drizzle this mixture over the hot quick breads. Let stand for 10 minutes, then run a knife around the sides to make sure the bread is loose from the pan. Carefully remove from pans, place on wire racks, and let stand until cool.
