This is one of those recipes that is filled with wonderful flavors Each flavor enhances the other flavors for wonderful taste.. This recipe is so good for those summer road trips or family get together picnics. Shhh! Don’t tell anyone but I like to make this one just for me. LOL It is so good. It seems that women love this bread just to munch on. It adds a new twist to a traditional banana bread. The orange peel , coconut and pineapple adds that beach feeling to the recipe. Your family will love it. This recipe only makes one loaf but you will want to make a couple at a time once you taste the flavor of it. This is a great recipe to make and have on hand for when the kids or spouse get home and dinner is not quite ready. You know, the times when they are just starved to death. LOL Enjoy and share it with your neighbors. I also make a similar recipe in my bread machine. It is wonderful too.
