Coconut Bread

I found a recipe for Coconut Bread that I wanted to try.  I was really hoping it would work out.  The recipe calls for Coconut FLOUR, but all I had was something labeled Coconut Powder... it isn't fine like flour and a little course with a meal-like texture.  It is a less expensive alternative.

I turned on some Jimmy Buffet music and soon I was prepping things whilst in a kitchen in Margaritaville.  I could almost taste the salt air, especially when I was opening the sea salt and it went everywhere!  It kinda added to the beachy feeling underfoot and I wont tell you where I found a few grains of salt later!

Coconut Bread

Ingredients:
6 eggs
1/2 cups ghee (or butter)
1-2 tablespoon honey, depending on taste
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup coconut flour*

Method:
Preheat your oven to 350. Whisk it all together, or blend in a food processor until all lumps are gone. Grease a bread pan with butter or coconut oil and pour your batter in. Bake for 40 minutes.

*I used coconut powder which is finely chopped coconut, but it is NOT as fine as powder!!!  

My Ingredients

Mixing things up in the food processor

Right out of the oven.  Lookin' promising!

 Even though I buttered the daylights out of this pan, it stuck!

The middle didn't cook up as well as the ends.

It was a tad eggy and VERY buttery (from my butterfest trying to keep it from sticking to the pan?).  BUT I HAD AN IDEA!!!

The next morning I warmed up a chunk, drizzled it with honey and it tasted pretty good!

I don't know if I'll make this again, we will see in time. I try to be thrifty and I'm not so sure about purchasing Coconut Flour, the coconut "powder" I buy is VERY affordable.  If I do make this again I'll do it in some whoopie pie pans or muffin tins to help cook the middle more evenly.  :-)
