Coconut Milk Banana Bread

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups (225g) unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp (5ml) baking powder
• 1tsp (5ml) baking soda
• 1 1/4 cups (310ml) mashed ripe bananas (3-4)
• 1/2 cup (125ml) coconut milk (see note)
• 1 tbsp (15ml) lime juice
• 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup (210g) sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract

Steps

• With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Butter a 23 x 13-cm (9 x 5-inch) loaf pan (a 1.5-litre (6-cup) capacity pan) and line with a strip of parchment paper, letting it hang over both sides.
• In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and baking soda. Set aside.
• In another bowl, combine bananas, coconut milk and lime juice. Set aside.
• In a third bowl, cream butter and sugar with an electric mixer. Add egg and vanilla and beat until smooth. At low speed, add dry ingredients alternately with banana mixture.
• Pour into the loaf pan. Bake for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.
• Let cool on a wire rack before removing from the pan and slicing.
