Coconut Pumpkin Bread

This time of the year, I can’t seem to get enough pumpkin. I put it in pasta, pastries and pies…and even spread it on toast. But my most favorite pumpkin treat is sweet bread. I love it with nuts, cranberries, dates–you name it! This is the first time I ever prepared it with coconut, and it won’t be my last.

Coconut Pumpkin Bread is a fun new twist on the classic. The sweet crunch of coconut tastes amazing with pumpkin, while the white chocolate-coconut glaze on top is truly the icing on the cake. This bread is so easy…the hardest part is waiting for it to cool long enough to add the glaze. 

The day I made this bread, I sent one to my husband’s office. He said it disappeared in a matter of minutes. Everyone loved it! 

The recipe contains lots of wholesome ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. 

After I make my batter, I fold in the coconut and bake it.

It rises to a nice golden brown. The bread would actually be great with just a dusting of powdered sugar. But I thought I would make it extra special with a drizzle of white chocolate and additional coconut.

There are plenty of ways you can customize this recipe. So why not get in the kitchen right now and get creative?
