How to Make Bea S Hawaiian Banana Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare two loaf pans by lining the bottoms with wax paper and greasing and flouring the sides.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts or macadamia nuts and 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut.
- In a separate bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup buttermilk. Stir until just combined.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just moist. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the banana bread cool in the pans for 10-15 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
