Heat oven to 350°. Grease one large or two small loaf pans. Cream brown sugar, butter, and eggs until fluffy. Sift-flour and blend dry ingredients together. Stir half of flour mixture into creamed mixture. Add pineapple and juice, then remaining flour. Blend in nuts. Pour into pan. Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over top.
