Luscious Coconut Bread

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

1 cup unsweetened coconut
2 cups unbleached flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegan soymilk
1 1/2 teaspoon Ener-G Ener-G Egg Replacer mixed with 2 tablespoon water
2 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoon unsweetened applesauce
3/4 cup vegan sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F).

Toast the coconut in a dry skillet on medium heat until it
begins to brown. Stir a few times, to brown evenly and
prevent burning. Keep a close eye on the toasting coconut
because it’ll burn quickly after it begins to brown.
Immediately remove from heat when it browns.

In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients, including toasted
coconut. In a separate bowl, mix together the wet
ingredients. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, and stir
until blended. Pour into a lightly greased bread pan, and
bake until a toothpick comes out clean and loaf is lightly
browned (about 45 minutes). Remove from pan, and cool on a
wire rack.

Serves: 1 loaf

Preparation time: 10 min.
