Ingredients
Cake:
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour (good quality, sifted)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ⅛ tsp salt (a pinch)
- 6 oz butter
- ¾ cup sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 ½ cups ripe bananas (mashed)
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 4 Tbsp buttermilk
- 1 cup shredded coconut (natural, without any added ingredients)
Coconut Icing:
- 1 cup confectioner's sugar (powdered sugar)
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- 2 Tbsp milk (more or less as needed to reach a proper consistency)
- 1 Tbsp shredded coconut (as needed to sprinkle on top of cake)
Instructions
Cake:
- Preheat oven to 350º F (175º C) and grease and flour a bundt pan.
- Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into bowl and set aside. In large mixing bowl, cream together butter and both sugars for a few minutes until light and fluffy, then add eggs and continue to mix.
- Next, add mashed bananas, yogurt and buttermilk and mix well.
- Add dry ingredients, and stir until combined, then stir in the coconut.
- Spoon batter into prepared bundt tin.
- Place into preheated oven, and bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until tester comes out clean.After about 10 minutes, remove cake from pan and place on cooling rack.
- Coconut Icing:
- After the cake has cooled, mix the confectioner's sugar, coconut oil and milk until a smooth consistency is reached and the icing slowly runs down the cake without all dripping off.
- While the icing is still wet, sprinkle with the shredded coconut.
- Allow the icing to set, then serve; I might add that this banana coconut bundt cake is just perfect with a cup of tea or coffee.
