No Oil Or Butter Fijian Coconut Bread#Eattheworld

This was really easy, one bowl bread, which turned out so  moist and flavorful.  What really  surprised me that this recipe had no oil or butter in it.  Although I was tempted to add a tablespoon or two of oil, but refrained from doing so since I wanted to taste and see how this turns out.  Halved the recipe and tweaked it a little. 
 This recipe  is a keeper, if you love coconut.  I loved it.
Recipe Source Travel by Stove
Measurement is a 200Ml Cup
Ingredients
1 ½ Cups All Purpose Flour
½ Cup Caster Sugar
½ Tablespoon Baking powder
2  Eggs
½ Teaspoon Vanilla Essence
1 Cup Coconut Milk
½ Cup Grated Fresh Coconut
Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease and flour a loaf pan.
Let's first toast the grated coconut in a dry pan until light golden.
Sieve the flour together with the baking powder, salt and sugar. Mix in the toasted coconut.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, coconut milk, essence  with a hand whisk,  until just frothy.  
Add in the dry ingredients and mix till well combined. 
This is a thick batter, so do not get tempted to add more liquid. 
 Pour into a greased and floured loaf pan and bake for 45 to 50 minutes ( it took exactly 48 minutes in my oven)
or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Perfectly baked.
It's a dense bread, but taste good, especially when warm.
This will keep  good in the refrigerator for a week, just cling wrap it.  Whenever needed slice, toast and enjoy.  
My husband does not like coconut, had a slice when it was just baked. 
So the rest of the I, enjoyed it, one day I even had it with Lotus spread and it tasted great. 
This bread is filling for breakfast, have two thick toasted slices and you're full.
