instructions
-
Step 1.
Preheat the oven to 180ºC fan bake, and line a 10cm x 20cm loaf pan with baking paper.
-
Step 2.
Sift the flours, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add the coconut and sugar and mix well.
-
Step 3.
In a smaller mixing bowl combine the wet ingredients.
-
Step 4.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry and stir until combined, then fold in the raspberries.
-
Step 5.
Pour the mixture into the loaf pan and spread evenly.
-
Step 6.
Bake loaf in the centre of the oven for approximately 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Allow loaf to cool completely before glazing.
-
Step 7.
To make the glaze, combine the raspberries and lemon juice in a small pan and heat until just bubbling (alternatively microwave until raspberries are soft). Pour raspberry mixture through a sieve to remove unwanted seeds, then combine with icing sugar.
-
Step 8.
Glaze the loaf and decorate with crushed, freeze dried raspberries and rose petals if desired.
