Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons Kelapo Coconut Oil
8 tablespoons light brown sugar
3 medium-sized ripe bananas
3/4 cup of milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
1 cup of chopped mixed nuts, toasted (I use cashews, almonds,
handful of sliced almonds for sprinkling on top

Preparation

1
Preheat oven at 350.
2
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3
In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the coconut oil and the light brown sugar.
4
Continue to mix as you add in the bananas, then the milk and vanilla. Mix for another 2 minutes. You are looking for a smooth batter.
5
Next, while still mixing, add in the dry ingredients, one tablespoon at a time, making sure each addition is mixed in well before adding the next.
6
Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the chopped nuts and the coconut flakes.
7
Transfer to a loaf pan and sprinkle the top with sliced almonds.
8
Bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the loaf comes out clean.
