Coconut Lime Quick Bread
Ingredients
2 large eggs
1¼ cups milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Juice & zest of 1 lime
2½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ tsp table salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup granulated sugar
1½ cups sweetened flaked coconut
6 tblsp unsalted butter, browned
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°.
Coat a bread pan with non-stick cooking spray or use butter and flour.
In a small bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, lime juice and zest. In a separate bowl stir together the flour, salt, baking powder and cinnamon. Add in the sugar and coconut and stir well to combine. Create a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the egg mixture. Stir until the ingredients are just combine and be sure not to over mix. Add in the browned butter and stir the mixture until it is just combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared bread pan and sprinkle with sugar and additional coconut. Bake for 60-75 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before removing it from the pan. Slice and serve with butter and a sprinkle of lime zest.
