Sesika's Mom's Tahitian Coconut bread

This is really good with Raspberry Sorbet. They serve this at the Tahitian village at the Polynesian Cultural Center in Hawaii.

2c coconut flakes
4c Flour
2tsp Baking Powder
1 1/2c sugar
1 1/2c water

Combine coconut, sugar, and water. Blend flour and baking powder together. Mix all ingredients to a doughy texture adding a little flour as needed so it is not too sticky. Wrap in aluminum foil and bake in oven at 350 for 1-1.5hrs. Makes 3-5 loaves.

***Alternately, you can bury the loaves in hot coals for several hours if you're doing the open pit cooking thing.
