Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the coconut milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
5. Add the Tropical Flavors
Gently fold in the mashed bananas, crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Bake the Bread
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula for a neat finish.
7. Bake to Perfection
Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
