About Coconut Bake
Ria's Trinidadian coconut pot bake is a round bread made with wheat flour, fresh coconut and coconut milk. This yeast rendition cooks in a buttered pot on the stove.
Brown sugar, salt and butter enrich the dough. Freshly grated coconut supplies both the pieces mixed into the flour and the milk extracted with warm water, giving the bread its coconut character.
The dough is pressed into a thick round, pricked with a fork and turned during cooking. Ria serves a buttered slice immediately after removing the bake from the pot.
