- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut plus a tablespoon for sprinkling
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 3/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.

- Add the mashed bananas and vanilla and beat until smooth.
- Fold in the mixed dry ingredients, until just combined. Don't over blend!

Notes
- How to store Banana Bread
- Cool completely and keep in an air tight container for up to 4 days.
- Substitutions/Additions
- I use unsweetened coconut in my recipe, but you can use sweetened if you prefer.
- Almond extract instead of vanilla extract is a great substitution.
- Freezing instructions
- This recipe can frozen after baking. Cool completely, then place entire loaf of banana bread in a freezer bag and freeze. You can also freeze slices, using parchment paper pieces in between the slices.
