Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped nuts

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 5-inch or 8½ by 4½-inch loaf pan with spray and set aside.
Whisk together the flour, shredded coconut, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nuts in a medium bowl.
Place the sugar and coconut oil in a large bowl and beat with a mixer at medium speed until well blended, about 2 minutes.
Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
Beat in the banana, applesauce, pineapple with juice, and vanilla extract.
Use a spatula to stir in the flour mixture, being careful not to over-mix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
