Pour the batter into a square baking tin or individual aluminum foil cups. Top with the reserved coconut.

Recipe Note

This is a denser version of the traditional banana cake and is very easy to make. You can either steam it in a square baking tin, in individual foil cups or do it the traditional way, in banana leaves.
