Ingredients
– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk (or a similar unsweetened plant-based milk with coconut)
– 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
– 2 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon coconut extract
– 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
– 1 cup fresh raspberries
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 1 1/2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut milk (or a similar unsweetened plant-based milk with coconut)
– 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
Instructions
1-Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease an 8 1/2 by 4 1/2 inch loaf pan. This step sets the stage for even baking and easy removal later.
2-In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 cup granulated sugar. This dry mix forms the base of your bread.
3-In a separate bowl, combine 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk, 1/2 cup melted coconut oil, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon coconut extract. Mix until well blended for a smooth wet mixture.
4-Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined to avoid overmixing. This keeps the texture light and airy.
5-Gently fold in 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut and 1 cup fresh raspberries. Be careful not to crush the berries for even distribution.
6-Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Check around 60 minutes to prevent overbaking.
7-Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool for 15 minutes in the pan before loosening the sides with a knife and transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
8-For the glaze, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut milk, and 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract until smooth, then drizzle it over the cooled bread. Slice and serve for the best fresh flavor bread experience.

๐ฅ If fresh raspberries are unavailable, frozen berries can be a good substitute.
๐ฅ Use room temperature milk and eggs to prevent the coconut oil from solidifying in the batter.
๐ฅ Toss raspberries lightly in cornstarch before folding in to help prevent sinking during baking.
