  • 7. To the remaining ⅔ of the batter, add the pineapple crystals and fold it until evenly mixed.
  • 8. Take a greased and lined loaf pan and add a little bit of the lemon batter into the pan.
  • 9. Now add a layer of pineapple batter into the pan.
  • 10. Repeat this alternating between the raspberry batter and pineapple batter until all the batter is added to the pan.
