As a Barbadian born in NYC, I was raised on coconut bread. my grandmothers and a great aunt who made them have died so I have not had coconut bread in 30 years!!!! Well, I am eating it right now thanks to this channel!!! It’s delicious warm. I always got them cold and hard. I used to eat thes with hot tea. This recipe was filled with coconut. I am low carb so I used almond flour and 1/4 of powdered protein. Mine are golden brown!! The coconut bread of my youth had more of a white look and they were hard. This is fabulous. THANK YOU!! I have subscribed!!!

My son & I made these today, I boil bay leaf and cinnamon then added the water to the mixture. I grated nutmeg to flavor it up. This was our first time and it wouldn't be the last. Thank you for this recipe.

[@xysix2548]

This is a wonderful confection. I cannot imagine anyone not liking this. Thumbs up, liked and subbed.

Hey Jehan, for a few years I’ve been watching you & I love your recipes and enjoy making foods from our culture 🇬🇾. I’ve followed your recipe for this 3 times now. And the buns were delicious. My household and I don’t eat egg so I substitute milk for most recipes. For this one I do 1-2 cups of milk. It comes out slightly different with the texture but the flavor and deliciousness is still there. Thank you for all of your recipes ❤️❤️

[@sharon_chai]

These are 10/10 👌🏼just came out of the oven and it’s soo good warm ! Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside - it’s not too sweet .i used real coconut as I never know what to do with the husk when finished cooking and I used raisins instead . Thank you so much for this recipe- I’m never buying this from a bakery again

[@paintedclaws8706]

Thanks for the recipe 😍 I would have never think of using already prepared coconut flakes. I am use to making it from the freshly grated coconut. I will definitely try it with the flakes. They look extremely delicious 🥰

[@jehanpowell]

Thank! If using pre shredded flakes be sure to give it a blitz in the food processor to get it this size.

[@carribgirl007]

We call it coconuts drops here in Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean, one of my favorite desserts.

[@ramdassbissoondyalbissnr7558]

Looks really good. And easy to make.

[@jehanpowell]

It is!

[@englishcountryside4581]

With a glass of cold milk ...and a candied cherry on top ❤

[@commess1]

In Trinidad it's called "coconut drops" or "rock cakes". And we always use the freshly grated coconut flakes.

[@gailcollins2397]

My nana made these here in England always called them Rock Buns I loved them
