Coconut Banana Bread (Crockpot)

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 3 – 4 whole bananas mashed
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup coconut shredded
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips if desired
  • non-stick cooking spray

Directions:

Turn a 6 quart or larger crockpot on high and let it pre-heat.

Make sure you have a rectangular loaf pan that will fit inside your crockpot.

In a large bowl cream together the sugar and the butter with a hand mixer.

Add one egg at a time and continue to mix.

Add in the bananas, milk, and vanilla extract.

With a wooden spoon stir in the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon and mix just until it is combined making sure not to over mix the batter. It should be a little lumpy.

Add the shredded coconut and chocolate chips and gently mix them in by hand.

Pray your loaf pan with a non-stick cooking spray designed for baking (I like Baker’s Joy brand).

Pour the batter into the loaf pan.

Place a small oval baking rack inside the bottom of the slow cooker (OR use strips of crumpled up foil) to elevate the loaf pan off of the bottom of the slow cooker.

Place loaf pan on top of rack/foil strips.

Place two connected paper towel sheets or a clean thin kitchen towel over the top of the slow cooker and then cover with a lid. (This is to prevent condensation that collects on the lid from dripping onto your bread as it bakes).

Using a fork or other kitchen prop the lid up just a little bit so that a little air can escape.

Cook the bread on HIGH for 2 to 4 hours.

Check the bread at the 2-hour mark and test with a cake tester or toothpick inserted in the middle of the bread. If not done cook longer.

Remove the loaf pan from slow cooker and let cool on a cooling rack for 10 to 15 minutes before removing the bread from the pan. Allow the bread to cool fully before eating.
