For some strange reason lately, I am in love with coconut. I add it to smoothies, loafs, cookies, granola, date balls, cereal, curry…basically everything I make. I decided to try this recipe and add coconut as well and it turned out AMAZING! I picture above does not do justice to this loaf. I made a couple loaves then froze them so I can take them out for snacks and desserts.

Ingredients:

2 eggs

1 cup coconut sugar

1/2 cup butter melted

3 medium ripe mashed bananas

1/2 tsp vanilla

1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (my kiddos love these!!)

Directions:

Beat eggs in a mixing bowl until frothy. Add sugar and melted butter. Stir in mashed bananas and vanilla. Mix dry ingredients into another bowl until combine. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix together well. Pour into a greased loaf pan 9x5x3. Bake at 350F in over for 1 hour. Remove from oven, let it cool for 10 minutes and then remove from the pan. Makes 1 loaf.

Enjoy! (My kids love to eat it with a glass of rice milk:)
