Banana Bread with Coconut Frosting

Cloudy Coconut Cake

With the weather still so dreary, I thought I’d share a recipe for a gorgeous banana cake sure to brighten up a long day at home as a treat. 

I love a good banana cake, but can’t stand those dull variations with little to no flavour. A good one has to be made with overripe bananas, otherwise that taste gets lost. In fact, this is a fantastic way to use up bananas that have blackened. Though the cake is still lovely without frosting, this one is light and fluffy with a delicious hint of coconut. You can use the frosting recipe for lots of different sponges and cakes, and play with other flavours such as orange blossom water as well. Don’t forget to sprinkle raw coconut flakes on top as it adds great texture and looks so pretty.
