Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 1/4 tsp instant dry yeast
4 1/2 cups unbleached flour (plus extra , if the dough comes out too wet)
1 tsp salt
1/4 c nonfat dry milk powder
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup coconut milk (if you warm this slightly it will help the dough rise quicker)
3 tbsp honey
3 tbsp butter, softened
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs

Steps:

1. In the mixing bowl of bread machine add all ingredients in order given. Set on dough cycle (just mixing and rising). The dough cycle usually lasts about 1 1/2 hours.
2. Or... alternatively, add all ingredients to a large bowl and knead together until a smooth dough forms. Add extra flour if necessary. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 1/2 hours.
3. When dough cycle is complete, or dough is approximately doubled in size, remove dough and place in oiled baking pans. You can use a Pullman pan or two bread pans.
4. Let dough rise in baking pans for 30 minutes.
5. Preheat oven to 350F.
6. Slash the top with a sharp knife and then bake for 35 minutes or until browned on top and cooked through.

Tips:

For the best results, use fresh, unsweetened coconut. If using sweetened coconut, reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.
Be sure to toast the coconut before using it. This will help to bring out its flavor and aroma.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can lead to a tough, dense bread.
Bake the bread in a loaf pan until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.
