I love every kind of bread, especially the sweet ones. I’m a sweet bread girl. 🙂 They are great with your coffee and tea for breakfast or afternoon. I found this recipe is Tara’s site but I did some changes. It caught my eye for the first time and decided to bake it as soon as I can.
Coconut Bread
Ingredients (makes 1 loaf)
– 150 g (1 cup) white spelt flour, sifted
– 150 g (1 cup) whole wheat spelt flour, sifted
– 80 g (1 cup) desiccated coconut
– 250 ml (1 and 1/4 cup) coconut milk
– 110 g (1/2 cup) cane sugar
– 2 organic eggs
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 2 teaspoons cinnamon
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 vanilla bean, split and seeded
– 6 tablespoons coconut oil (you can use butter too)
Method
Preheat the oven to 180C (350F). In a bowl mix together the wet ingredients: first the eggs with the sugar, then add vanilla seeds and coconut milk. Set aside. In another bowl mix together the dry ingredients: flours, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and desiccated coconut. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry one, stirring until just combined. Also fold in the coconut oil. Pour it in a 25 cm (9,75 inch) long loaf pan and bake it on 170-180 C (338-356 F) for about 40 minutes. It’s ready when the cake tester (or toothpick) comes out clean.
