Updated: Jan 4, 2022

‘Ohana Pineapple Coconut Breakfast Bread Recipe



Inspired by Disney World’s ‘Ohana Restaurant

If you have been following from the beginning you know that we are lovers of all things Disney. Whenever we go to Disney, one of the things we look forward to is our family breakfast at ‘Ohana in Disney World. They serve up this Hawaiian bread that is out of this world. We decided to make it for ourselves during COVID, and we think we came pretty close to the real thing.

The word ʻOhana means welcome in the Hawaiian language, but in a much wider sense, to include not only one’s closer relatives, but also one’s cousins, in-laws, friends, race, and other neighbours. The idea is also that family and friends are bound together and everyone must work together and not forget each other. -From Wikipedia.
