This recipe has been a family favorite for several years. The addition of coconut, orange peel, pineapple and nuts gives a new twist to a loaf of banana bread. It's so good I sometimes serve slices of it for dessert. -Lanita Anderson, Chesapeake, Virginia

I wasn't sure how I would like the combination of pineapple and coconut, but I was pleasantly surprised. The bread was moist and flavorful, and the pineapple and coconut gave it a unique and delicious flavor.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit! The bread is moist and flavorful, and the pineapple and coconut give it a tropical twist. I love serving it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.
