Outstanding recipe. Much better than most banana cakes. Coconut gives a unique texture and flavor, and the icing is particularly excellent - the extra banana in it really reinforces the banana flavor of the cake. I lost it after making it the first time, and was so happy to be able to find it again, although I couldn't remember what site it had come from!

Yum. I didn't have time to let it cool and ice it, so I put a broiled coconut icing on it and served it warm. Next time, I'll try the banana coconut icing.

I will be making this recipie again.I do not normally like bananna cake but the coconut andnuts gave this a nice combination. I used walnuts .Next time i will be lowering the suger content.I found that the icing was not necessary.This ias a perfect cake for summer. The only complaint that i have that this is an ugly looking cake but it tastes superb.

I thought this cake was wonderful. I especially like the banana in the frosting. A lot of people seem to be intimidated by its intense, unrestrained flavors. I would recommend toasting the pecans for 8-10 minutes at 375 to bring out flavor and cripness. Thanks for this recipe.

The best blend of flavors ever! I made it for a birthday party and it was much more popular than the real birthday cake. Everyone just loved it!!! I skipped the frosting and I baked it on the day of the event, and I can't believe that it could taste even better than what it tasted! But well, next time I'll try baking it a day before serving, with the frosting...

This is the most delicious cake I have ever made. I love banana and coconut and this is the epitome! I've made this on three different occasions and everyone raved. I love this website!

Very good! My family gobbled it down. The only issue I had was my frosting came out too thin, but still, it was delicious. Next time I will use walnuts as they are more readily available than pecans in our area. This recipe is worth trying.
