3 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla

Directions
Preheat oven to 350F
Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar until blended. Add eggs and beat to combine. Add banana, sour cream or yogurt, milk and vanilla. Beat until blended. Add flour mixture and beat at low speed until just combined. Stir in the coconut. Pour batter into a bread pan that has been sprayed with Pam. Sprinkle additional 2 Tbsp coconut on top. Bake in the oven for about 50-60 minutes until done. Check after about 40 minutes. If the top has browned and the coconut pieces are looking toasty, cover top of bread lightly with foil and continue baking until done. Remove from oven and let cool on a cooling rack for about 10 minutes, then carefully remove from pan. Cool for another 15 minutes before slicing.
