Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line muffin tin with liners.

In a medium sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Whisk together bananas, vegetable oil, sugar, egg, and vanilla in a large bowl until well combined. Fold in flour mixture until flour is just moistened and then fold in 1 cup shredded coconut.

Divide batter among lined muffin cups and sprinkle with remaining shredded coconut.

Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center come out clean.

Transfer muffins to a rack and cool. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
