Ingredients

  • 2 Eggs
  • 300 ml 10oz milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • cups plain AP flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup caster superfine sugar
  • 150 g 5.5oz shredded Coconuts (about equal to 2 cups)
  • 75 g 3oz unsalted butter melted (I used salted)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C(400F) fan-forced and line a loaf tin so the paper extends over the long sides.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and vanilla together.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and sugar then stir in the coconut.
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the milk mixture. Mix it all together gently with a wooden spoon.
  • Pour the melted butter into the batter and stir it through but don't over-mix it.
  • Spread the batter into the tin and bake the bread for approximately 1 hour or until golden and a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Let the baked loaf cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
