 Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

• 3/4 cup sugar

• 2 large eggs

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1/2 cup coconut milk

• 1 cup diced ripe mango

• 1/2 cup shredded coconut

Optional glaze: powdered sugar mixed with a little coconut milk

 Instructions

1. Preheat and prepare
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

2. Mix dry ingredients
   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

3. Cream butter and sugar
   In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

4. Add coconut milk
   Mix in the coconut milk until fully combined and smooth.

5. Combine wet and dry
   Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

6. Fold in fruit and coconut
   Gently fold in the diced mango and shredded coconut.

7. Bake
   Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Cool and serve
   Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Drizzle with optional coconut glaze if desired.
