Ingredients: 1.5 cups flour; 1 cup desiccated coconut; ½ cup WHOLE EARTH Sweetener Co. Baking Blend; 2 tsp baking powder; 1 cup milk; 1 egg, beaten; 1 tsp vanilla essence; 1 cup frozen blueberries; 1 tsp WHOLE EARTH Sweetener Co. Baking Blend

I have developed this easy recipe for Blueberry and Coconut Loaf to show you how delicious baking with WHOLE EARTH Sweetener Co.’s products can be. I used the Baking Blend which is a blend of raw cane sugar and stevia. It bakes and browns just like sugar with 50% fewer calories than traditional sugar and is made from 100% natural ingredients. When baking with it you use the ratio of ½ cup Baking Blend to 1 cup sugar, as you only need half the amount to get the same sweetness as sugar! Therefore, your baking will have less calories and you can eat it without the guilt but still the great taste.

How to make Blueberry and Coconut Loaf:

This loaf is so easy to make, you just combine all of the dry ingredients then fold in the wet. Be careful when you add the blueberries as you don’t want the whole loaf to turn purple. I used frozen blueberries but fresh would work well too or even frozen raspberries if that’s what you have on hand.

The perfect treat for morning tea with your family or share over a cuppa with friends. This loaf freezes really well so you could double the mixture and once cooked wrap a loaf with baking paper and pop in the freezer until you need it.

This loaf also works really well in the toaster, a great breakfast treat.

1/2 cup Whole Earth sweetener equals 1 cup of sugar if you want to use standard sugar instead.
