Quick Coconut Bread

---

An easy bread, likened in flavour to putting a straw in a coconut! of course, using fresh coconut to grate and make the coconut milk is devine if you have the time. (note that you need to prepare coconut milk from the coconut meat, not just use what is poured from the coconut.) you might wish to top this with a lime glaze. from sundays at moosewood.
