This Protein Coconut Banana Bread is a delicious tropical twist on a much-loved classic, combining the natural sweetness of ripe bananas with the light, nutty flavour and texture of coconut. Made with The Healthy Baker Protein Banana Bread Mix, it bakes into a beautifully soft and moist loaf while providing an added source of protein in every slice. The coconut adds a subtle richness that complements the banana perfectly, creating an easy and satisfying bake that feels a little different while still being wonderfully familiar. Ideal for morning tea, afternoon snacks, lunchboxes or casual entertaining, it can be enjoyed fresh from the oven, lightly toasted or served with a little butter. Finish with a sprinkle of extra coconut before baking for a golden, textured topping.
Preheat oven to 180C conventional or 160C fan forced.
Grease a large loaf tin.
Place Protein Banana Bread mix, canola oil, eggs, bananas and water into a medium mixing bowl and mix for 1 minute.
Scrape down mixing bowl and mix for a further 1 minute. Fold through 1/2 cup of the shredded coconut.
Pour batter into the greased loaf tin and sprinkle with remaining 2 tbs of coconut.
Bake for 50-55 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Let cool in the loaf tin for 30 minutes.
Remove from loaf tin and place on a cooling rack to cool completely.
Slice into even pieces and enjoy.
