Coconut chai spiced loaf

Sweet, creamy coconut x warm, chai spices. A perfect match, and a legitimate reason to have both of these things for breakfast.

  • 200ml coconut milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 140g light brown soft sugar
  • 140g plain flour
  • 1½ tsp baking powder
  • 40g desiccated coconut
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Seeds from 5 cardamom pods, crushed
  • Grating of nutmeg
  • Pinch ground cloves
  1. Line a loaf tin and pre-heat oven to 160C fan (180C)
  2. In a bowl or large jug, whisk together the coconut milk, oil, eggs and vanilla.
  3. In another bowl, mix the sugar, flour, baking powder, desiccated coconut, spices and a pinch of salt.
  4. Simply pour in the wet ingredients and mix until just combined to a smooth batter.
  5. Pour into the tin and bake for 1 hour (or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean)
