Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a baking pan with butter or oil.

In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.

Add sugar and melted butter to the mashed bananas, mixing until combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and coconut milk until well blended.

Combine the egg mixture with the banana mixture, stirring to combine.

In another bowl, mix semolina, baking powder, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Fold in chopped nuts and desiccated coconut for added texture.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Drizzle honey over the top for added sweetness before serving.
