How to Make Coconut Bread Guyana Caribbean

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch loaf pans.
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup dried fruit and 1/4 cup of the 4 cups all-purpose flour. Gently toss to coat the fruit with flour. Set aside the floured fruit.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Add 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 large eggs (beaten), 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup melted margarine, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cup coconut milk to the flour mixture. Whisk until well combined.
  5. Gently stir in the floured dried fruit and 1 cup shredded coconut.
  6. If the dough is too sticky, lightly flour a clean surface and knead briefly until manageable.
  7. Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a loaf and place into the prepared loaf pans.
  8. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the bread is golden brown.
