Hawaiian Banana Bread


1/3 cup coconut butter
2/3 cup organic cane sugar
2 heaping tbsp. applesauce 
1 cup banana (about 2 large or 3 small)

Cream butter and sugar. Add applesauce and blend in mashed bananas.

1 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. salt

Combine dry ingredients. Add to wet mixture and mix until just blended.

1/3 cup shredded, unsweetened coconut
1/3 cup chopped cashews

Fold in coconut and cashews.

1 tbsp. coconut oil 

Grease the pan with coconut oil. Pour in the batter. Bake about 55 minutes at 350 degrees. Cool about 10 minutes and remove from pan.

I wanted to try this with a glaze but didn't have time!  I was thinking about 1/3 cup honey heated on the stove with the juice of 1 lime. I'll let you know if I try it!
