Banana bread

I first made this banana bread about 7 years ago when I was living in Holland, Michigan. My friend Jeff owned and operated a Bed and Breakfast called the Douglas House in Douglas, Michigan. Jeff always did a really beautiful breakfast spread, and I occasionally helped him out. This banana bread was a hit with his guests, and I've been making it ever since. What sets it apart from run-of-the-mill banana breads is the addition of coconut, lime zest and juice, and a few tablespoons of dark rum. I serve it on a bed of coconut and garnish with lime wedges. Once you try it, no ordinary banana bread will do...
