Contents

1 tablespoon of shredded sweetened coconut

1/2 cup of icing sugar

1 and a half tablespoons of fresh lime or lemon juice

Heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Instructions:

Put flour into measuring cups without pressing down; even it out with a knife. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together using a whisk.

Put sugar and butter in a big bowl. Mix them with a mixer on medium speed until they are well combined.

Add one egg at a time, mixing well after each one.

Mix banana, yogurt, rum, and vanilla together until well combined.

Add the flour mixture and mix at a low speed until just combined. Add 1/2 cup of coconut.

Put the batter into a loaf pan (9 x 5 inches) that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of coconut on top.

Cook in the oven at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let the pan cool for 10 minutes on a rack before removing the baked item from the pan.

Mix powdered sugar and juice together, stirring with a whisk. Pour the mixture over the warm bread.

Let it cool completely on a metal rack.

Enjoy!
