Description

Dive into a tropical taste experience with this luscious Coconut Bread Recipe. Brimming with the richness of coconut milk and desiccated coconut, it's a perfect breakfast treat or afternoon snack!


Ingredients

  1. 2 cups all-purpose flour
  2. 1.5 tsp baking powder
  3. 1/2 tsp baking soda
  4. 1/2 tsp salt
  5. 1 cup granulated sugar
  6. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  7. 2 large eggs
  8. 1 cup coconut milk
  9. 1 tsp vanilla extract
  10. 1 cup desiccated coconut
  11. Optional: 1/2 cup of mix-ins (like chopped nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
  2. Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Mix in Coconut: Stir in the desiccated coconut.
  6. Alternate Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually mix in the dry ingredients and coconut milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Make sure to mix just until combined.
  7. Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. If using mix-ins, fold them into the batter before transferring. Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
