                                                                  Wet Ingredients:

                                                     2  bananas, mashed (riper is better!)

                                                   1/3 C crushed pineapple, drained

                                                   1/4 C canola oil

In a large bowl, combine oil, sugar and bananas.

 Add all the dry ingredients EXCEPT coconut. 

 It will feel very thick but don't worry!

                                                     Fold in the coconut and pineapple.

It will still feel dense.  Make sure everything is incorported.

                                            Spread into a greased standard sized loaf pan.

                                            Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.

                                               Just out of the oven - golden lusciousness!

                                            Sliced, you can see the pineapple and coconut!

                                                    Ready for tea!  I made a spread for it...
                                                               Coconut Honey Butter: 
                                      Mix equal parts of butter, honey and coconut oil, that's it!
