I love banana bread. I love banana bread with coconut. I loved this recipe. I made half of it, and baked it in a loaf pan. I used coconut, coconut rum and yogurt for the liquid. It was pretty much perfect, and I wish I could make it again right now. I cut a slice to photograph, then quickly had to slice another when I accidently inhaled it. I took it over to my brother and sister-in-law's, and was told to forget about taking the rest back home with me.
Still steaming! This week's recipe was chosen by Kimberly at Only Creative Opportunities and I think you should head over there now for the recipe, even if you're a coconut hater. That's where the 'lots of ways' comes in--you can put just about anything in here and it'll be good. Enjoy!

WOWOWOWOW! I love coconut in banana bread too... and pineapple!! and I love the "steamy" pic!
Yum! I also played around with adding coconut & coconut rum - so good! The yogurt sounds like a great addition.
LOL! I inhaled mine too, love it! This was my farewell post with TWD after almost two years of baking along. Hope you'll stop by and say goodbye!
Your cake looks great! It never occurred to me to make it in a loaf pan! Thanks for baking with me this week!
send some on over here
just like your brother's family, i wouldn't let you take it home either! Tia
Guess you'll have to make yourself some more, huh? :o)
I will certainly make it again. Love you blog header.
i agree--this cake was perfect!
I loved the cake as well; my daughter didn't care for the coconut (more for me). It certainly is a versatile recipe.
Your "steamy" cake looks gorgeous! ;-)
Mary, I love the way the coconut hangs out a bit. It is a wonderful cake.
Great idea to do it as banana bread. I had to give mine away to stop myself from eating it all!
Yes, it was THAT good wasn't it. Wish I had made more than 1/2 the recipe. But tomorrow IS another day...
I love all he pieces of coconut showing in the cake. YUM!!
mmmm, your cake looks so good! I can't wait to try this again with coconut!
Oh my goodness, Mary! :-) I adore banana bread with coconut, but never thought to add coconut rum to it!! HEAVENLY! :-)
Coconut rum... in a banana bread... My mind is reeling and my tastebuds are tingling!
The coconut was the best part (along with the rum)! A fellow loaf baker! Loved this! It's my new banana bread recipe! Yours looks truly scrumptious!
Looks delicious! I loved the coconut in this, and I'll have to remember to add some the next time I make banana bread.
Yum! The coconut additions sound great! I might have to try that next time...because there will be a next time for this one! :)
On vacation so I skipped this one. I guess I'll have to revisit it soon.
