Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 2 items Large eggs
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the shredded coconut to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly so that it is evenly distributed.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, and stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake the coconut bread in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve your Quick Coconut Bread as-is or with a spread of butter or jam.
