Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x4-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter with sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then fold in mashed bananas, crushed pineapple, and flaked coconut.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and coconut sugar.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until combined without overmixing.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top, then tap the pan lightly on the counter.
  7. Bake for 65-70 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Remove from oven, let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack to cool completely.
