Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375F.
Add the mango and pineapple chunks to a small saucepan.
Cook over medium high heat for 5 minutes.
Add the corn starch, and mix to combine with the fruit and its juices.
Continue cooking for another 5 minutes or until the mango is broken down and the mixture is thick. The pineapple will stay in tact.
Spray a small baking dish or casserole with cooking spray. I used an 8.5" x 11" 2.5qt casserole dish for this.
Add the bananas to the bottom of a mixing bowl, and mash them with a fork.
Add the applesauce, sugar, baking powder, salt, extract, and ground ginger and stir to combine.
Add the milk. Whisk together.
Add the oats. Fold in.
Pour the mixture evenly into the baking dish.
Add the fruit mixture to the top, and sprinkle with the coconut.
Bake at 375 for 35 minutes.
