Apricot & Coconut Loaf | Baking in a Wood Fire Cook Stove
Very easy to make, this simple recipe is a favourite in our family: a moist, dense loaf, perfect for the school or work lunchbox. Was a recurring feature in Zak's childhood, with Penelope [Granny] making this often on the tiny coal range they had when he was a boy. This sweet loaf tastes great served plain by itself, or with a little bit of butter.
Ingredients:
1 ½ cup white flour
¾ cup wholemeal flour
2 heaped tsp baking powder
2 cup desiccated coconut [long thread coconut is best]
1 cup raw sugar
1 heaped cup diced dry apricots [can soak these in the milk for an hour or more to rehydrate]
2 cup milk
Mix all the dry ingredients and then add the milk. Put into a well greased loaf tin and bake in a moderate oven, for about an hour (approximately 55 minutes at 180 C/350 F). Easiest to slice once cool!
Extra notes:
🌏 NZ baking measurement conversions: edmondscooking.co.nz/how-tos/...
🌳 Healthier variations: try halving the quantity of sugar, or substituting with honey or maple syrup; adding bran, nuts or sultanas/dates/raisins; and/or increasing the wholemeal to white flour ratio.
🍪 Less healthy variant: add a cup of chocolate chips! [Gretel thinks this is a great idea 😂]

Your home is like a fairytale with all the little babes and kitchen and the land and the home......I could go on. I wish all children could grow up like this!!!!
Children raised with kindness and respect , a wholesome loving family ❤️
Love kids that look like good old fashioned kids. The way life should be.
Hi dear beautiful baby girl 's
Our world would be better place if there were more grounded families such as these beautiful folk. I just love these videos.
I want to live in countryside like that, cook with woods, close to nature, neighbors. What a peaceful life 😥
"Excuse me..." You are doing a very good job at educating those kids.
very heart warming. wish all families could be like this.
My heart is so happy watching these clearly well-loved children have such a good quality of life. Though the adults could probably get the bread dough stirred faster and more thoroughly, the little ones are all given a turn and everybody is given an apricot to eat rather than candy and the children are going to see the chickens rather than the arcade and my heart just melts watching them be beautiful and well-loved children. There is something bright in their eyes that i feel sometimes gets snuffed out of people too early and i am so glad it is still there with them. :) <3
The "excuuse mee" of maeva gets me everyy tiime .. how cuuuuute 😄😍
If I could be a child again, I'd love this life.

Sweet babes and William is❤ all the family is so grounded and that is the USP of a beautiful family.
Oh My God. You, the babies, aunty and granny's home and that beautiful space of land is to die for. Beautiful, Beautiful!❤❤👶
It's so wonderful watching the children run and play and help in the kitchen. Thank you for the recipe I will make it for my kids.
