If we were stranded on a tropical deserted island, what delicious tasting fruits do you think of first? Luscious pineapple, coconut and bananas? Yup!
And since it is a tropical kind of summer, (90+ degrees here in Indiana) this Tropical Bliss Pineapple Coconut Banana Bread seems fitting. It literally melts in your mouth! It's a super moist gluten-free banana bread with a tropical sunshine vibe of crushed pineapple soaked in passion-fruit juice, flaky coconut
and ripe bananas.
This quick bread can also be made with all purpose flour as well, if you're not worried about gluten-free. However, if you are gluten-free or experimenting with gluten-free, then give Blends By Orly Gluten-free Baking Flour 
a try! There is no undesirable after-taste or crumbly texture when you bake with it.
It's the perfect 1:1 flour replacement and I love it that it bakes just like regular flour.
Use this Sydney Blend
as a one to one replacement for wheat flour in any of your own recipes for brownies, muffins, pies, quick-breads, kugels and more! It's gluten-free, nut free, vegan, corn free and all natural.
They also have many different gluten free blends to choose from for different types of baking and you can find out more by going here.
So, why not give it a try! Here's the recipe for Tropical Bliss Pineapple Coconut Banana Bread {Gluten Free}! It's your tropical paradise of yumminess! Now all we need is the tropical island...working on that!
