Ingredients

Units Scale

BREAD

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter – room temperature
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sweetened coconut

GLAZE/TOPPING

  • 1 cup confectioner’s sugar
  • 1–2 tbsp unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1/3 cup toasted coconut

Instructions

  1. BREAD Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. BREAD In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir & set aside.
