Ingredients:-

2½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1¼ cups granulated sugar
2 cups finely shredded unsweetened coconut
2 eggs
¾ cup milk
½ cup fresh lemon juice
1 Tablespoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup butter, melted

Procedure:-

1.) Heat the oven to 350°.

2)Grease and flour an 8x4 inch or 9x5 inch loaf pan.

3)In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and salt using a rubber spatula, then stir in the sugar and coconut.

4)In a small bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla.

5)Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the egg mixture, stirring just until combined.

6)Add the melted butter and stir just until smooth. Be careful not to over mix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 65 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center of the loaf comes out clean. Ovens vary, so start checking for doneness after about 60 minutes (55 if you're using a 9x5 inch pan).

7. Let the bread cool on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes and then carefully remove it from the pan.

Store in an airtight container for 3 days or wrap in plastic and/or aluminum foil, pop in a plastic zipper bag, and freeze.
