Hawaii Ka’u with coconut & mango banana bread

October 5, 2015 by jocelyn Leave a Comment

Most of my recipes and pairings are meticulously planned… some of them happen by accident! I was going to make a smoothie, and all of my bananas were brown. Not just a little spotted, but almost black. They either had to go in the trash, or I had to make something with them, and I thought I’ll make banana bread. Easy enough. Then I decided I wanted to make something to pair with the Hawaii Ka’u, and that’s how I ended up with this!

I decided to take the aloha theme a little further, and I used coconut flour and oil instead of flour and butter. If you know me, you know this is way beyond my comfort zone!! I just kept on adding to it, chopped mangoes, sliced almonds, white chocolate chips, macadamia nut liquor, shredded coconut… and you know what? It all somehow worked. (and yes, it was delicious!)

Coffee was originally regarded as a wonder drug in Yemen and Arabia and was taken only at the advice of a doctor. Many saw coffee as a brain tonic or as a way to stimulate religious visions.
