Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of coconut milk, 2 mashed bananas, and 1/2 cup of melted coconut oil. Mix well until smooth.

- Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, extract the pulp from 1 passion fruit.
