Luau Bread

Once a week my youngest daughter and I make a bread.

Whether it be banana, blueberry, lemon, the list goes on.

It has become a great tradition for her and I. Love through

food. This bread has a ton of coconut flavor, almost like a

coconut macaroon in bread form... YUM. This recipe

makes two, so share one and have one for yourself. Perfect

for the holidays to hand out. I like to eat mine with pineapple

cream cheese. Enjoy!
