Breads and Muffins

Makes 1 Loaf

2 cups flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
¼ cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1½ cups mashed banana (about 3)
¼ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
½ cup flaked coconut
1½ tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Place sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed, until well blended. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add bananas, sour cream and vanilla and mix until blended. Add flour mixture; beat at low speed just until moist. Stir in the coconut. Spoon the batter into a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle top with an additional 2 tablespoons of coconut and bake 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes away clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes on a wire rack. Remove from pan and brush with lemon glaze. For glaze: In a small bowl, combine lemon juice and sugar, stirring until mixture is fully combined.
