COCONUT AND CINNAMON BREAD /LOAF

It's the perfect Sunday weather to make a coconut and cinnamon loaf . Preheat your oven to 180 deg C . Grease and line a loaf pan with baking paper . In a small bowl whisk together 2 eggs with 300ml of milk and 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract . In a separate bowl mix together 260 gm of all purpose flour ( I used quinoa flour , I have said previously don't be afraid to use different flours , eg buckwheat , coconut , quinoa). along with 1 dsp of baking powder and 1 dsp of ground cinnamon . Now add 1 cup (230 gm ) of castor sugar and 150 gm ( 1 and 3/4 cups ) of dessicated coconut. Stir to combine . Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry mixture and stir until combined , then mix in 75 gm of melted butter . Pour into the prepared pan and bake in the preheaed oven for 50 minutes , or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean . Set aside to cool in the pan and then insert onto a wire rack . Cut into thick slices and sprinkle with icing sugar . This is also absolutely beautiful toasted or grilled and served with butter ...
