CARIBBEAN COCONUT BREAD

Caribbean Coconut Bread image

This is one of my favorite recipes, handed down to me from my boss's recipe box. It is great as a breakfast muffin, snack, or with a meal. Everyone will love this. Feel free to make it your own. Add nuts, raisins, coconut milk, or make it just how it is.
