Sourdough Coconut Banana Bread by www.cookingwithruthie.com is one of the most amazing loaves you'll ever taste! Oh my. SO good!!

If you’re a fan of coconut then this loaf is just what you need~ it’s one of those delicate loaves that melt in your mouth.  Oh my goodness.  This recipe alone is completely worth getting your sour dough start going 🙂

If you’re like me- I used to only be familiar with sour dough bread loaves which are very good but have a strong, sharp flavor to it. These recipes using sour dough start that I have been sharing with you are much more mild.  The sour dough starter just adds a little bit of ‘tang’ to it and let me tell you it’s a tang you want to experience!  Seriously.

It’s a whole new flavor accent that I completely adore!
