I baked cookies the other day, and as soon as we ran out I decided I MUST have another sweet on hand for easy consumption. Enter: Coconut banana bread. I searched Pinterest (because where else would I look?) for a new banana bread recipe, and found a recipe for coconut banana bread. YUM! I then did another search to see what other coconut banana bread recipes were out there (this time using good ol' Google), and found this one. Both sound/look amazing, so I combined the two using what I had on hand. Here's what I used:
2 cups
all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon
baking soda
1/2 teaspoon
salt
1 cup
granulated sugar
1/4 cup
butter, softened
2
large eggs
2 cups
mashed ripe banana (came out to be 4 bananas)
1/4 cup light coconut milk
3 tablespoons
dark rum
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
1/2 cup
flaked sweetened coconut, plus 1 tablespoon
Cooking spray
1/2 cup
powdered sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons
fresh lime or lemon juice
Preheat oven to 350.
Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl, set aside.
Beat together the butter and sugar in large bowl. Add eggs, beat together. Add banana, milk, rum, vanilla. Add flour mixture, beat on low. Stir in 1/2 cup coconut. Spoon batter into a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan coated with
cooking spray. Sprinkle with additional 1 tablespoon of coconut. Bake at 350° for 50-65 minutes.
Combine powdered sugar
and juice and drizzle over warm bread.
