Coconut Loaf

Submitted by Me & Mr. Jones

"Cake-like quick bread from TOH 2003 Quick Cooking."

 

• Ready In: 1hr 10mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Yields: 1 loaf

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 3⁄4 cup milk
• 1 1⁄4 cups flaked coconut

directions

1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla.
2. Combine flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. Stir in coconut.
3. Pour into a greased 9"x5"x3" loaf pan. Bake at 350 for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
4. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. (This ends up being a good batter to put pudding mix into, as well, for when you're out of coconut. I've added a small box of butterscotch pudding, and it came out being absolutely delicious.).

This is a very Good recipe. The Flavor is Great! I just feel like it was missing a little something though I can't quite put my finger on it. I'm thinking maby next time I will serve it with some type of topping. I will be making this again! Thanks Missus Jones!
