My 10 Second Coconut Bread has been a MASSIVE hit. It is quick, easy and very adaptable. I know many people have been able to tweak it using spelt flour, rice/soy/nut milks and changing the sugar used in it. This is a really versatile loaf/cake that can suit lots of allergies – it has no eggs or nuts either! I’m a genius. Truth be told its a recipe I winged and worked out a success. I wish every recipe was like that!
Another tweak is to turn it into a chocolate coconut loaf, or what we like to call it here, the 10 second Coconut Rough Loaf. My boys love chocolate anything so this is a nice treat that is a bit healthier than my traditional chocolate cakes. This doesn’t last long at all in our house.
This can be frozen whole or in slices so its great for a last minute morning or afternoon tea idea.

I had all intentions of freezing the leftovers but oops we ate it all. Another home run PETA thank you
Coconut rough bread! Amazing!! So quick!! Perfect afternoon treat ๐
Delicious and quick, thanks for sharing!
This looks great! To make dairy free do you think using coconut milk will work?
Jen I use coconut milk all the time and it works great – lovely and moist, does seem to take a little longer to cook – might be the fat content ๐
This is super yummy, we make them as cupcakes as well with great success. easy and delish!!
Thanks Lyn & Amorita. Cupcakes sound like a great idea!
Yum! Great easy recipe all eaten before I got the chance to ice it.
I really don’t know why I waited so long to make this. Holy moly – so good! Baked in a square cake tin for about 20 minutes. Complete perfection. Thanks for another great recipe Peta x
I made this again today and halved the cocoa and added a teaspoon of baking soda and it was more cake-like. Soooo good!!
Love this loaf! I cooked it for 35 mins which was just a tad too long, next time i’ll go with 30. Didn’t need to ice it and i used cacao instead of cocoa powder. Thx Peta!
SO glad you like it!!! Love the substitute! I do this to make my Coconut Rough Loaf ๐
Yum!!! Works well as individual muffins as well. I do it like this and freeze for school lunches without the icing.
Yum,thanks Peta,doubled amount safely in tmx,and made a loaf and mini muffins as well,great recipe.
