I am so excited to share this Lemon Blackberry Jam and Coconut Loaf Cake recipe with you guys! Can you name a better flavor combination than coconut, lemon, blackberry...because I can't. Sweet, moist, fruity loaf cake swirled with blackberry jam and infused with the creamy nutty flavor of coconut, topped with a citrusy lemon glaze and shredded coconut on top. This blackberry jam and coconut loaf cake is perfect for winter but also gets me excited for the citrusy fruity notes of spring. The best part is it is so quick and easy to make!
HOW TO MAKE THE BATTER
This is such an easy recipe. You literally only need one bowl and a whisk! Mix together all your wet ingredients, then add your dry ingredients. That's pretty much it. That's why I love it so much.
HOW TO SWIRL THE JAM
So I use homemade blackberry jam and the recipe for that is also here on my blog. It sounds fancy but its SO SIMPLE. I recommend trying to make it yourself with the recipe on my blog, but if you prefer you can also use a store bought jam. Make sure it is high quality because a lot of jams are more sugar than fruit and you don't want that. To create that fruity swirl, pour half of your batter into your loaf pan. Then dollop half of your jam on top of that in small dollops... spread out evenly. Then pour in the rest of your batter on top of that, finishing it off with the remining jam on top. Then take a knife and swirl together your jam and batter together.
HOW TO MAKE A SIMPLE GLAZE
This glaze consists of just powdered sugar, a little bit of lemon juice and zest, and a splash of coconut milk. Mix together and then just drizzle on top of your loaf. Before the glaze dries sprinkle on your shredded coconut!
