Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (350°F) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together shredded coconut, sugar, baking powder, and vanilla extract.

  3. In a separate clean bowl, whip the egg whites until they form stiff peaks.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Egg whites hold stiff peaks before folding.

  4. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the coconut mixture, being careful not to deflate the airy texture.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Coconut mixture stays airy after the whites are folded in. Fold gently to preserve the whipped texture.

  5. Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

  6. Bake for 25‑30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Loaf turns golden and a tester comes out clean.

  7. Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.

  8. Turn the loaf out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

  9. Serve plain or dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
