Equipment

  • Loaf pan
  • mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Oven
  • wire rack

Ingredients
  

BREAD

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.75 cups granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cups butter room temperature
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.75 cups unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cups sweetened coconut

GLAZE/TOPPING

  • 1 cup confectioner’s sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoon unsweetened coconut milk
  • 0.33 cups toasted coconut

Instructions
 

BREAD

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir & set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, butter, eggs, coconut milk, and vanilla. Whisk well until combined.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients.
  • Fold in the coconut.
  • Transfer to a greased loaf pan.
  • Bake 45-55 minutes or until the toothpick test is clean.
  • Let the bread cool on a wire rack in the pan until it reaches room temperature before adding the glaze and removing it from the pan.

GLAZE

  • Whisk together the confectioner’s sugar and milk, starting with just 1 tablespoon and increasing up to 2 tablespoon – until you reach your desired consistency. Some like it thin enough to soak in and others like it thicker like frosting.
  • Pour or spread the mixture on top of the cooled bread.
  • Sprinkle with toasted coconut before slicing and serving.

Notes

I used the Thai Kitchen Coconut Milk in the red carton.
