I've tried out this recipe several times and the bread always comes out dense and doughy, not at all light and fluffy like the original Hawaiian bread

I halved the recipe and made eight 3.7" x 2.4" little loaves topped with coarse raw sugar. I used two eggs, 1 cup pineapple juice (no water) and about 3 1/2 cups bread flour. Although the inside crumb is airy with holes, it is very soft and tender, but without any distinct pineapple taste. Made for my Preemie Adoption Fall PAC 2011.
