I just made my loaf today. I followed recipe except I used canola oil instead of vegetable as I didn't have any. Also 1h of baking was plenty for me. I'd recommend setting your timer at 1h and check.

I added chia seeds and flax seed.

My result were a delicious moist loaf. Changes from the banana bread. My 18 months loves it too!
I have a hard time tasting the coconut so I'm thinking next time to sub the vegetable oil for coconut oil. That's what I do with my banana bread and it taste terrific.
Thank you for the great recipe!
