1 1/2 cups self-raising flour, sifted.
1 cup mashed banana.
1 cup coconut milk.

Preheat oven to 170 C.
Grease and line a loaf tin, 6cm deep 10.5 x 20.5cm.
To a large bowl, add coconut, sugar and flour.
Add mashed banana, egg, coconut milk and vanilla to a jug, and whisk with a fork to combine.
Pour the banana mixture over the flour, and gently stir through.
Transfer mixture to prepared tin, and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the centre of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to stand for 10 minutes in the tin.
Remove from the tin and cool completely on a wire rack.
