Coconut Banana Friands 椰丝香蕉费南雪

I love friands and had shared 4 friand recipes in my previous posts.  This time around I've changed the flavour to dessicated coconut and banana. It was a perfect combination. I baked the small cakes a little longer to get a little crusty outer layer with the sweet and soft banana on top.  I've changed my favourite friand pan to mini muffin pan this time. So good to serve these cute dainty cakes warm with a nice cup of coffee.
