It had a tropical flavor with the coconut and the butter made it taste rich like a dessert. Plus I love bananas. Thumbs up from me.

Try baking it at 375 for 20 minutes which worked pretty well for me. Decent recipe, but you really need to add the cooking time up there so we're not guessing. Otherwise... good stuff.
