Coconut Banana Bread

I found this on another blog and thought it looked yummy! I am going to try it this weekend...

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 sticks butter, softened
1/2 cup applesauce
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3 large eggs (I used egg substitute)
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest (I used 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract) optional
4 mashed ripe banana 3 tablespoons sour cream (I used light)
3/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts (Did not use) optional
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut

Preheat oven 350. Into a bowl sift together the flour, the baking powder, the baking soda, and the salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer cream the butter with the sugar, applesauce, beat in the vanilla, the eggs, the zest, the banana, and the sour cream. Add the flour mixture, beat the batter until it is just combined, and stir in the macadamia nuts and the coconut. Pour the batter into greased muffin tin, Bake 15-18 mins or bread pan, Bake 40-50 mins
