Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
Stir in the shredded coconut and dried cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
Step 4
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the coconut milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and orange zest, and whisk until smooth and combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold them together using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; stir until the batter just comes together and no streaks of flour remain.
Step 6
Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Slice and serve your Coconut Cranberry Bread as is, or with butter or cream cheese. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
