2 eggs
1/2c mashed ripe banana
2c flour
1t baking powder
1/2t baking soda
1/2t salt
1 - 8oz can crushed pineapple
1/2c shredded coconut
Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs; mix well. Stir in banana. Sift together flour baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to creamed mixture; mix well. Fold in pineapple and coconut. Pour into greased and floured 9" x 5" loaf pan. Bake at 350 for 1 hour and 10 minutes . Let stand for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool.
*Notes*
I had to bake mine for the full 70 mins. You should start checking at the 60 min mark. Ovens vary you know.
The recipe doesn't say to drain the pineapple so I didn't.
Mine turned out very cake like and not dense like a lot of other quick breads.
Next time I would add a little more coconut. 1/2 cup didn't seem like enough to me
