This is a moist and delicious cake! It is fantastic on its own, so I didn’t want to make a heavy frosting. A simple drizzle of condensed milk on top was the perfect touch for this Banana, Coconut and Pineapple Cake.
This cake is very simple to make and as you know, I am not a good baker, so trust me when I tell you it is easy and simple 
I always have ripe bananas at my house and I hate to waste them, so I decided to create this cake and to my surprise it was wonderful. We loved it!

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 stick butter

2 ripe bananas, mashed
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup crushed pineapple
Condensed milk to serve

Awesome!!! so soft and spongy!!!loved it
This is a perfect blend of sweet tropical flavors. The drizzle of sweetened condensed milk is just right – how I’d love a slice of this right now!
Yes, since the sun has come out in the past week, I am in the mood for fruity things, and this would work! I am with you on the not being such a great baker. With the luck of the baking gods my stuff works 90 percent of the time, LOL!
Looks sooooooooooooooooooo gorgeous!!
This is another combination of some of my favorite things.
Thank you everyone! I love all your comments!
It looks soooo gooood! I like that it has a simple topping! Yummm!
Wow, all my favorites all together! The cake looks so moist and also the frosting looks fab!
Oh my gosh! It sounds great to me! Love the tropical thing going on with this cake. Wish I had a slice!
What a beautiful cake! I make banana and pineapple in ‘Hummingbird Cake’ but it is the coconut that really makes this one special!
yumm that looks delish , and all tropical ingrediants so can easily make this , will give it a try soon
That’s a beautiful golden cake. I’ve never thought to use condensed milk as a glaze before. Awesome idea! I’m going to borrow that one from you.
YUM! Perfect for spring…great combination and gorgeous looking cake.
This cake looks so good! It has all of my favorite ingredients. I am going to have to make it the next time I have ripe bananas left over.
this looks wonderful, erica–so tropical! i think you made the right call by skipping a heavy frosting (and i rarely feel that way!!).
This sounds like a mixture of tropical fruit heaven! Love the three fruits that you used to flavor it. It looks like a great cake!
Thank you guys! It is a wonderful cake
Se ve riquisimo!

I am bookmarking this as I always need ideas for bananas that are too old to eat and perfect to bake in ! A nice change from the muffins i bake constantly!
What a pretty cake! This will be the next recipe I used when I have bananas for baking with!
This just sounds like summer with all this wonderful fruit – looks delicious and perfect for paring with tea.
This cake makes me homesick, love the tropical flavors!
Have never tried the combination of bananas with pineapple but I am sure I will love it.
i sincerely love very moist cake so your recipe is for me
ciao From Paris PIerre
I made this last night at a housewarming and everyone LOVED it…..I am glad that I pre-measured and took the ingrediants with me cause she had nothing for baking lol!
definately a hit with the crowd….thanks!
Hello erica!! What a divine looking & fresh cake!
Yummmmmm,…I so love your appetizing pictures!! oooh yes!
Hmm…something tells me that YOU ARE a good baker! This cake looks amazing and Iove your idea of drizzling the condensed milk over the top:D
I love banana flavor in a cake but never tried to make it myself. If you say that it’s easy, I will try this one. Yours look so bright and fresh. I just wonder if there is a tip about how to add pineapples in it. I added apple slices once and all of them sank to the bottom! Am I supposed to mash them too?
What a great combination, must be delicious and the condensed milk on top make it irresistible.
Thank you everyone for visiting my site!
“Do you know how many calories you add to this cake with the condensed milk”?…. lol
thanks for your comment on the post of the cake recipe I used for my granddaughter’s birthday, used it for “gazillion years”, but it seems this cake (recipe) of yours tops it by far and the condensed milk is such an easy and quick way for a topping!
I also love the combination of coconut, pineapple and bananas… have to try it … maybe for my mom’s 80th birthday on Sunday because I decided not to use/make/bake the usual “run of the mill” cakes for this wonderful celebration.
BTW, thanks for your visit and comment on my kids party site… hope to see you there again soon!
Regards and happy baking from South Africa
Hi Erica,
Can you tell me how many serves I can get from this recipe? I will make it for a party
Thanks a lot
Monica- About 8 to 10 servings.
Well, I am trying it right now. I do not have a bundt pan — must be in storage. I hope it comes out well in a cake pan. I will let you know.
It came out great with a regular pan.
Kim- Thank you for your feedback!!!Glad you liked it.

I am learning to cook at 50 and this is the first cake I have ever made that didn’t come out of a box. My husband and friends loved it (after they got over the fear of eating something I had baked).
Tasty! And super easy to make. I picked this recipe, not only because of the great reviews, but because I actually had everything I needed to make it in my kitchen! Delish!
This cake is super good and easy to make.
