Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F & grease two 9-inch loaf pans.
- In a small bowl, add dried fruit & 1/4 cup of the 4 cups of flour, then strain flour into a large bowl, leaving the dried fruit coated with a bit of flour. Set the dried fruit aside.
- In that same large bowl, add the rest of the flour then whisk together the flour, baking powder & salt, before adding the sugar, beaten egg, milk, melted margarine, vanilla extract & coconut milk, whisking to combine well.
- Stir in the grated coconut & dried fruit, blending well. If necessary, knead briefly on a floured surface.
- Cut dough in half & shape each half into loaves, & placing them in the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes or until golden brown.
Tips:
- Use fresh coconut: Fresh coconut adds a delicious flavor and texture to the bread. If you don't have access to fresh coconut, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough bread. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread in a loaf pan: A loaf pan will help the bread to rise evenly. You can also bake the bread in a 9x13 inch baking pan, but the bread will be flatter.
- Cool the bread completely before slicing: Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
