Calories:
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh grated coconut
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 3 cup flour
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp spice
- 1 tsp nutmeg
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 cup raisins
- ½ cup cherries
- ½ cup currants
- 1 pinch salt optional
Instructions
- In a medium-size bowl combine the grated coconut, sugar, and essence. Rub in the butter into the coconut mixture with a strong fork.
- In another bowl shift the flour, baking powder, salt, spice and nutmeg together. Stir in the coconut mixture into the flour.
- Add the milk and vanilla essence. Mix for a soft dough. Adding the milk last prevents you from mixing a loose dough, especially if you use grated coconut.
- Fold in the raisins, cherries, and currants. Pour the batter into a well greased 9” loaf pan. Bake for 60 minutes in a preheated 350°F (180°C) oven or until an inserted skewer is removed clean.
