1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup dessicated or flaked coconut

2 small to medium ripe bananas (mashed)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
4½ ounces cream cheese
2 cups icing / powdered sugar
½ cup crushed walnuts to decorate (optional)

  • Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, coconut, and salt in a large bowl.
  • Mash the banana in another large bowl, then whisk in the eggs, sugar, oil, pineapple and juice, cinnamon and ginger.
  • Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir until just combined (take care not to overmix).
  • Pour into the baking pan, then bake for 25 to 30 minutes until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out more or less clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
