Cranberry, Lime & Coconut Loaf…from Pinterest

Published on February 18, 2013 By Emily. Updated on February 18, 2013

Tomorrow’s the deadline to submit entries for the Pinstrosity challenge.  Luckily the holiday has afforded me the opportunity to put together one last recipe.

When this pin for Cranberry, Lime and Coconut Loaf from Sweet Peas and Saffron found its way to my pin board, I knew I’d make it sooner or later.  It includes many of my favorite things: coconut, carbs, cranberries, zest.  How could it be bad?

It took me a bit longer than the 10 minutes referenced in the original post to put together the batter, but it wasn’t much longer (and certainly would’ve helped if my butter had been soft).  I substituted sweetened flaked coconut because that’s what I had on hand.  The loaf took 65 minutes to bake through, just like Denise suggested.

The loaf finished a beautiful golden brown.  It was difficult to wait the 30 minutes before turning the loaf onto a cooling rack.  I didn’t wait much longer before cutting into it, so it was a bit crumbly when I cut the first 2 slices.  I’m hoping that changes as the bread cools, but even if it doesn’t, the taste is excellent.  It’s sweet and tart and the toasted coconut on top adds a little bit of crunch.

I think this would be a great bread to make for a party, any time of day.  It’s one of those recipes that’s impressive, but not difficult to put together.  There’s no chocolate, but it’s still sweet and would make a great dessert.

In addition, completing this recipe allows me to cross off #66 on my 101 in 1001 list: complete 3 projects posted to Pinterest.

Apparently, in the weirdness that is 2020, posting Apparently, in the weirdness that is 2020, posting to my Instagram feed was one of the things that didn't make the cut. There are more items than I'd prefer in that category, but recently I've felt like I'm beginning to get my feet firmly planted beneath me again. This fall was so busy with learning how to teach remotely and parent 2 children well. I don't anticipate that life will ever feel not busy, but I've been able to carve out some time lately for activities I've been missing. Making bread is one of those activities. Hopefully, more posts in the feed will be more frequent going forward.

#sponsored All the time we've spent at home lately #sponsored All the time we've spent at home lately has definitely had me looking to expand the snack options in my pantry.  I jumped at the chance to try these @sunmaid Sour Raisins  and they immediately became one of my daughter's favorite snacks. She likes them because they're reminiscent of candy, I like them because they're technically fruit and they come prepackaged for easy snacking and taking on the go. I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty they are!

This weekend's weather was amazing and my family e This weekend's weather was amazing and my family embarked on the only way to kick off fall: we went apple picking at Jaeschke Orchards in Adams.  The parking lot was full, but out in the orchard we hardly came across any other groups.  The trees were heavy with apples and we quickly filled our bag. Looking forward to apples for snacks, pie, crisp and turnovers in the coming weeks.
