I decided to take on a baking Pin this week because honestly I wanted to bake and I had some bananas that were in dire need of being used before they went to the great compost heap in the sky. I luckily had all the ingredients for this Pin in my cupboard and Molly took a nice long nap so I was able to bake some treats for her afternoon snack.
I started by gathering my ingredients. The recipe calls for one loaf pan but I decided that mini muffins would be more fun so I greased up (using coconut oil) my mini muffin tin. I ended up having enough batter for mini muffins and a small loaf though.
I decided to add chocolate chips to the recipe because you can not go wrong with chocolate chips. And I was right, they only made the bread more yummy!
Here is the recipe which is delicious and I highly recommend that you make RIGHT NOW!
Makes 1 loaf
Ingredients
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 1/2 cups self rising flour (use all purpose and increase baking soda to 1 tsp)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 medium overripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
1 cup light coconut milk
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut (or shredded coconut)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 1/2 cups self rising flour (use all purpose and increase baking soda to 1 tsp)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 medium overripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
1 cup light coconut milk
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut (or shredded coconut)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
- In the bowl using a wooden spoon mix the oil and sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in the vanilla and almond extract.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together the mashed banana and the coconut milk.
- Gradually mix in the dry ingredients alternately with the wet ingredients. Start and end with the dry mixture. Mix until just combined. Stir in the flaked coconut.
- Pour the batter to the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 1 hour – 1 hour and 15 minutes, when a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
