Thank you sooooo much for this recipe. I tweaked it bit because a family member dont like the coconut husk and i used active yeast so i had to cut down a bit on the coconut milk. Its my first time and it was delish!

[@best-uw9ix]

Wow egg free delicious recipe!!!!

[@09tulin]

Hi, the bake looks mouth watering. Can I make the bake without mixed essence? Is the essence something that I can make?

[@joyfuloven]

The essence is something you can leave out if you don’t have. The bake will still be soft and delicious. Enjoy! 😊🙏🏼

[@Bradlee297]

I always leave out the essence and nutmeg

[@susandean9112]

perfect ❤

[@lindyannfarrier8463]

Yes you can! 😊 Mix it with the coconut milk and blend until it’s fine. Enjoy 😉

[@clairecuffy5866]

@@joyfuloven same to u my dear!

[@denisebentick8905]

I make this same bake

[@eliza1877]

Hello my mixture was perfect but the dough didn’t rise how yours showed in the video, and I used the same yeast. I also followed all of the instructions. Any tips?

[@joyfuloven]

Hi, you can try proofing the yeast before you add it to make sure the dough rises.

[@leannapeters-williams6460]

Yeast was probably dead...

[@leannapeters-williams6460]

If you proof the yeast before and it doesn't froth within 5-10 mins.., it's definitely dead. Buy fresh yeast and try... Red Star Brand... Good luck!

[@carynsharpe1519]

The coconut milk you added, was it the pack mixed in water or the original from grated coconut

[@joyfuloven]

Hi, I blended dried coconuts to get the coconut milk, and added some coconut milk powder in the recipe. However, I have tried the recipe with coconut milk mixed from coconut milk powder and it was just as delicious and soft. When doing so, I just add a bit extra coconut milk powder to make the flavor stronger. Enjoy 😉

[@carynsharpe1519]

Thank you so much. Will be make some tomorrow plz god .. enjoy your day

[@saryarohit2925]

Hi Erica, I can't understand why you are not more popular! Your recipes, tips and tricks are divine! Listen, my only problem with this recipe is all of the "proofing" and resting that is necessary. I am going to use your ingredients and your directions but after that first knead, I am going to set up those bakes in the baking pan. I will let it "soak" for 30-45 minutes while I make saltfish buljol, then I will poke them with the fork and bake them. Hope that works for me! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Will let you know how it goes... I am looking for something quick and easy to make on a Saturday or Friday evening that's not too labour intensive and is executed quickly. Thank you so much for posting videos. What will be on your Christmas table this year? Would love if you shared your menu and prep work with viewers.

[@joyfuloven]

Hi, thank you so much for your feedback! 😊 For fast proofing, place the dough covered in an oven with the oven light on, the heat cuts the proof time in half. 😉

[@saryarohit2925]

Erica, I did too many alterations to my recipe. Used different types of flour (3 cups whole wheat, 2 AP, 1 Cracked wheat) and girl... Mayday! Mayday! What a mess! We are diabetics and we can't be eating all of that white flour. I need to fix my raising agents and thank you for that added tip of leaving it to rise in the oven. Thank you for sharing your methodology and recipe which is flawless. I appreciate it and I will tinker with mine to suit my dietary needs. God bless you, dear!

[@cherry-annleacock1835]

I'm not saying this bake ain't go come out good but I split the recipe in half and pressure the liquid was way too much for the flour and I had to keep adding flour lol but I'll try it again with the full recipe

[@cherry-annleacock1835]

The bake came out really nice despite what happened, once I got the consistency that I saw on yours, in the end it worked out great👍

[@rogerwilliams2042]

What level to place in the oven?

[@joyfuloven]

The middle is good 👍🏻

[@islandgirl3330]

Can I use dessicated coconut? Thanks.

[@joyfuloven]

I am not sure. If you do try it, soak the dessicated coconut in the coconut milk, same recipe measurements, to rehydrate it. Let me know how it goes. 😊

[@islandgirl3330]

@@joyfuloven Thanks. I will experiment and see if rehydratimg the coconut can work.

[@belovedgarvin5337]

I’m sorry I follow everything you said and it came out wrong .

[@joyfuloven]

Hi, how so? Was the dough too moist or too dry? Let me see how I can help you.

[@belovedgarvin5337]

Thk you for responding it was to moist

[@joyfuloven]

@@belovedgarvin5337 Hi, I'm sorry I'm now seeing your response. You can add a little extra flour, or add 2 tbsp less water. Keep in mind that the dough is expected to be soft. Let me know how it turns out.
