About this Recipe

A loaf is a (typically) rounded or oblong mass of food, traditionally and historically made of bread. Because some types of bread dough tend to collapse and spread out during the cooking process, it is common to bake bread in a rectangular bread pan, also known as a loaf pan. Doughs with a higher viscosity can be shaped by hand into the desired loaf shape and baked on a flat oven tray. Doughs with a lower viscosity can be kept in shape by using a bread pan with sides that are higher than the uncooked dough. As the name implies, a loaf cake is baked in a bread loaf pan. These cakes, also known as quick breads, can contain a wide range of ingredients, such as fruit and nuts. Bananas, walnuts, pumpkin, and zucchini are all popular loaf cake ingredients.

This loaf cake is so easy to make and it gives you a sturdy loaf. You can slice pretty slices and it is so soft and moist as well because of all the coconut you added in.

Ingredients for Best Coconut Loaf Cake Recipe :

Dessicated Coconut :
Dried coconut is delicious on its own as a snack, in hot or cold cereal, and in baked goods. It can also be added to smoothies, salads, and stirred into sautéed vegetables. It's also a popular ingredient in Thai and Indian cuisine.

Baking Powder :
Baking powder is used to increase the volume of baked goods and lighten their texture. It works by releasing carbon dioxide gas into a batter or dough via an acid–base reaction, which causes bubbles in the wet mixture to expand and thus leaven the mixture.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
