Yield Makes 5 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon double-acting baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 1/3 cups mashed ripe banana (about 3 large)
3 tablespoons sour cream
3/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut, toasted lightly and cooled

Steps:

  • Into a bowl sift together the flour, the baking powder, the baking soda, and the salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer cream the butter with the sugars until the mixture is light and fluffy and beat in the vanilla, the eggs, 1 at at time, the zest, the banana, and the sour cream. Add the flour mixture, beat the batter until it is just combined, and stir in the macadamia nuts and the coconut. Divide the batter among 5 well-buttered and floured 5 3/4- by 3 1/4-inch loaf pans and bake the breads in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean.

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 loaves, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon double-acting baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, soft
1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon lemon zest, freshly grated
1 1/3 cups bananas, ripe and mashed (about 3 large)
3 tablespoons sour cream
3/4 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a bowl.
  • In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, cream the butter with the sugars.
  • Beat in vanilla, eggs (1 at a time), zest, banana, and sour cream.
  • Add flour mixture slowly and beat until it is just combined.
  • Stir in the macadamia nuts and coconut.
  • Pour batter into a greased (I use butter and a little flour) 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.
  • Bake in center of preheated 350 degree oven for 40-50 minute or until tester comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the banana bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Toast the macadamia nuts: Toasting the macadamia nuts will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Use a loaf pan that is at least 9x5 inches: A smaller loaf pan will make the banana bread too thick and dense.
  • Bake the banana bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 50-60 minutes.
  • Let the banana bread cool completely before slicing: This will help it to hold its shape.

Conclusion:

This coconut and macadamia nut banana bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat. It's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. The combination of coconut, macadamia nuts, and bananas is a winning combination that everyone will love.
