CARROT COCONUT BREAD



Carrot Coconut Bread image

This is a really moist hearty sweet bread that my family loves. It is adapted from a recipe in the "More With Less Cookbook". I sometimes reduce the fat even more by using apple sauce instead of the oil, but I do like the texture the oil gives it. Also, you can add 1/2 cup chopped nuts if you would like. It gives it a nice crunch.

GLUTEN-FREE COCONUT CARROT CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE ICING



Gluten-Free Coconut Carrot Cake With Cream Cheese Icing image

This is a recipe that I got from the website of Gluten-Free Goddess. It uses Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix. I've made it several times and I've gotta say, it's really good. My wheat eating DD even asked for it for her birthday. If you are GF/CF you can use canned pumpkin or applesauce in place of the yogurt and 2 cups of your flour mix plus 2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of baking soda.

GLUTEN-FREE COCONUT BREAD



Gluten-Free Coconut Bread image

We've found that the best gluten-free recipes rely on a custom blend of flours and starches. To make your own sorghum flour, blitz whole sorghum to a powder with a Vitamix blender or a NutriBullet.

Categories     Bon Appétit     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Coconut     Bread     Breakfast     Dessert     Brunch     Bake

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 1/2 cups white rice flour
3/4 cup sorghum flour
3/4 cup tapioca starch
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon coconut extract (optional)
4 large eggs
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes

Steps:

  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 350°F. Line a 9x5" loaf pan with parchment, leaving overhang on long sides; coat with nonstick spray (to use an 8 1/2x4 1/2" pan, hold back 1 cup batter). Toast shredded coconut on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned, 5-7 minutes. Let cool.
  • Whisk rice flour, sorghum flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and xanthan gum in a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat sugar, coconut milk, oil, and coconut extract, if using, in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved and mixture is smooth, about 4 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat mixture until very smooth, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low; beat in dry ingredients. Increase speed to medium; beat batter 5 minutes. Beat in toasted coconut. Scrape batter into prepared pan; top with coconut flakes.
  • Bake bread until top springs back when gently pressed and a tester inserted all the way to the bottom comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 80-95 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let bread cool in pan 10 minutes. Turn out bread onto rack and let cool completely.
  • Do Ahead
  • Bread can be baked 4 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature
