Preheat oven to 350 degrees Prepare bread pan with cooking spray - spray well all over so the bread doesn't stick.

Prepare a sheet pan with aluminum foil, and spread the coconut over it. Once oven is heated, toast the coconut in the oven for 5-8 minutes, until just starting to brown. Not all will be brown, you just want it lightly toasted. Let cool slightly.

Using a large bowl, mix the butter and sugar together.

Add eggs, and mix in completely.

Add flour, cinnamon, cardamom, baking soda, and salt to the mixture. Mix until combined.

In a small bowl, mash bananas, yogurt, and vanilla and stir until combined.

Add banana mixture to the rest of the mix in the large bowl, and mix.

Add chocolate chips and toasted coconut to the bowl, and carefully mix or fold in. To fold in, use a rubber spatula, and do a folding motion to lightly mix in the last ingredients.

Add batter to the prepared bread pan, and carefully place it in the oven.

Bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Let cool and enjoy!
