Ingredients

  • 8 ounces 1 c. all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • 4 ounces 1/2 c. unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 ounces 1/2 c. granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces 1 c. evaporated milk
  • 8 ounces 1 c. finely grated coconut

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray the inside of a loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon and set aside.
  3. In another medium bowl, combine the butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract and milk. Then pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and mix using a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula mix until all the ingredients are combined. Stir in coconut.
  4. Pour the batter in the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool completely over a rack before slicing and serving.
