Bajan sweet bread like most other breads is an enriched dough, and contains ingredients like sugar, eggs, milk, and butter to add flavor to the bread.

There are some types of sweet bread such as the Hawaiian and the Portuguese sweet bread that I have tried but some people just like good old grandma fluffy sweet bread recipe.

Bajan Coconut Sweet Bread

When I make coconut sweet bread no one refuses, it’s just that good. This richly textured coconut bread is a traditional favourite of all Barbadians and a west Indian delicacy. My friends in St. Lucia love it along with bread rolls.

This traditional Barbados sweet bread is soft but not too soft as it’s also a little crumbly and delightfully eaten sometimes with cheese and served with hot tea; it can be buttered if you prefer.

Melt the butter in a saucepan. In another bowl mix the coconut, the majority of the sugar – leave some back for covering the loaves later, raisins, cherries, eggs, milk, mix essence, nutmeg and melted butter.
