COCONUT BANANA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk flour, 1 tablespoon white sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Mix milk, egg, and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl. Stir milk mixture into flour mixture until incorporated.
• Beat banana in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; mix creamed banana into batter. Stir melted butter into batter. Refrigerate batter for 10 minutes.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls into the hot oil, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
• Combine 1 cup white sugar, buttermilk, and butter in a saucepan over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil for 1 minute; reduce heat and mix coconut extract and baking soda into the syrup. Simmer until baking soda is dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes.

BANANA COCONUT LOAF

• Mix together flour, coconut, baking powder, baking soda, salt, chopped walnuts, and cherries.
• Break eggs in a mixing bowl, and beat until light and frothy. Add sugar and melted butter or margarine. Beat well. Stir in mashed banana and flavoring. Add flour mixture, and stir just to combine. Spoon into greased 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes, and remove from pan. Cool.

BANANA-COCONUT BAKE

BANANA AND COCONUT PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Spread the shredded coconut on an oven tray and toast it in oven for 10 minutes or until it is dark golden, shaking the tray occasionally.
• Remove the coconut from the tray to prevent it from burning and set aside.
• Sift both flours into a medium bowl.
• Add the sugar and desiccated coconut and mix through with a spoon.
• Put the beaten egg and coconut milk together in small bowl.
• Make a well in the center of the flour, pour in the combined egg and coconut milk, and beat until smooth.
• Add in the three tablespoons of melted butter.
• Melt a little extra butter in a large non-stick frying pan-if you have a crepe pan use that.
• Pour 3 tablespoons of the pancake mixture into the pan and cook over medium heat until the underside is golden.
• Turn the pancake over and cook the other side.
• Transfer to a plate and cover with a tea towel to keep warm.
• Repeat with the remaining pancake batter, buttering the pan when necessary.
• Cut the bananas diagonally into thick slices.
• Heat the butter in the pan; add the banana, toss until coated, and cook over medium heat until the banana starts to soften and brown.
• Sprinkle with the brown sugar and shake the pan gently until the sugar has melted.
• Stir in the lime juice.
• Divide the banana among the pancakes and fold over to enclose.
• Sprinkle with the toasted coconut and strips of lime rind.

COCONUT & BANANA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl, and stir in 2 tbsp of the sugar and a pinch of salt. Pour the coconut milk into a bowl, whisk to mix in any fat that has separated, then measure out 300ml into a jug. Stir the milk slowly into the flour mixture to make a smooth batter, or whizz everything in a blender.
• Heat a shallow frying pan or flat griddle and brush it with oil. Use 2 tbsp of batter to make each pancake, frying two at a time - any more will make it difficult to flip them. Push 4-5 pieces of banana into each pancake and cook until bubbles start to pop on the surface, and the edges look dry. They will be a little more delicate than egg-based pancakes, so turn them over carefully and cook the other sides for 1 min. Repeat to make 8-10 pancakes.
• Meanwhile, put the remaining coconut milk and sugar in a small pan. Add a pinch of salt and simmer until the mixture thickens to the consistency of single cream. Use this as a sauce for the pancakes and spoon over some of the passion fruit seeds.

COCONUT BAKED BANANAS (OR PLANTAINS)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°, cut the ends of the bananas or plantains and peel.
• Place them in a baking dish and brush with the butter. Sprinkle with the cinnamon and add the coconut milk, then sprinkle with coconut.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
• Serve warm as a side dish.
