Coconut Raspberry Bread Recipe

It’s been a busy summer and I have been neglecting our local farmers market. Sad, I know. I used to go every Saturday, but this summer has been difficult with the boys. We are usually busy with other things on the weekends and getting the boys ready and loaded in the van is an event. Plus, it is hard to push the double stroller through the crowds. So, I’ve been a farmers market slacker. I am hanging my head in shame.

Well, last Saturday I made it to the market and I am so glad I did. I came home with bags of fresh vegetables and fruit. I hit the jackpot! I bought a few baskets of beautiful raspberries and I couldn’t wait to use them in a special recipe. I made a loaf of Coconut Raspberry Bread and it didn’t last long!

Coconut and raspberry is one of my favorite combos, especially during the summertime. I knew the two would come together to create an amazing loaf of sweet bread!

I used Almond Breeze’s Almondmilk Coconutmilk Original Unsweetened to make my bread. It has the perfect hint of coconut and made my bread super moist. I also added coconut oil, coconut extract, sweetened flaked coconut, and my fresh market raspberries!

I drizzled a sweet coconut glaze over the top, which makes the bread more like cake, but I am calling it bread so I don’t feel guilty about the two pieces I ate for breakfast:)

The bread has a nice coconut flavor with bursting raspberries inside! The glaze really is the icing on the cake…I mean bread:)

Hit up your local farmers market for some raspberries and make this Coconut Raspberry Bread. It is the perfect summertime treat!

  1. Oh my, totally agree on the double stroller, we have 2 young kiddos two and ours is just a cheap one we got at a thrift store. Does not move well! It’s so hard to push through the crowds. But yes, we love scoring big at Farmer’s Markets and local roadside stands, so cheap. Peppers and zucchini for 50 cents!!!! This bread look so scrumptious, in particular, the coconut glaze. Yummy.

  2. This bread is gorgeous! I love coconut and raspberries together too. Perfect summer flavors! ๐Ÿ™‚

  3. I love the coconut thanks to its sweet and a little bit creamy flavor to me, thus I’m running into any recipes with coconuts regardless of how it is cooked, how long it may take or any others. I don’t care just knowing that I’m going to taste coconut. Just go ahead. I will make yours right now.

  4. Oh my yum. I love raspberries and coconut – but combined?! YES. My sister-in-law is coming at the end of the month with her family and I might have to impress with this. Going to try a GF version with a mix of GF flour and coconut flour. And sub raw honey for the sugar. We shall see how it turns out. Thanks for the inspiration!!

  5. This is BEAUTIFUL! What do you think about using white whole wheat flour and subbing in some blueberries?

  6. Could the almond milk be replaced with actual dairy or is there another substitute that will keep the bread as moist? I have a severe nut allergy.

  7. Hi, this coconut raspberry bread really looks so tasty! The picture are just wonderful. I’ll give this recipe a try this weekend for sure. Cooking is my favorite hobby. Thanks for sharing.

    Soooo delicious!! The bread was moist and super coconutty! Make sure the milk and eggs are at room temperature or the oil will solidify all over again. I didn’t care for the glaze — not a fan of the flavor of powdered sugar — but really liked the bread!ย 

  9. 5 stars
    I used golden and red raspberries, and tossed them in a little corn starch to keep them from sinking to the bottom of the batter. I used So Delicious Coconut beverage instead of the Almond Breeze coconut milk because that is what I had on hand. The bread tastes amazing, and it smelled so good coming out of the oven, that I completely forgot to make the glaze! So, if you don’t want the added sweetness of the glaze, I can attest to the delicious flavor of the bread sans glaze.
