A recipe from the islands of St. Vincent & The Grenadines. Ingredients:
6 cups flour |
1 1/2 cups water |
1/2 cup margarine |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup shortening |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
2 cups of grated coconut |
1 -2 cup brown sugar |
1 tablespoon yeast (instant) |

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Sift together the flour and salt. Cut the margarine and shortening into the flour mixture.
3. Add spices and yeast, followed by coconut and water.
4. Knead the mixture for 5 minutes, score with a knife. Leave to stand until almost twice its' size (approx. 1 hour). Form dough into a round mound or loaf shape.
