5 steps

Ingredients

  • 3 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages grated coconut
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup seedless raisins
  • 4 ounces candied mixed fruit peel
  • 4 ounces fresh cherries, pitted and cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon mixed essence
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup margarine
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon water, or more if needed
  • 5 teaspoons white sugar, or more to taste

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease five 8x4-inch baking pans.
  2. 2
    Combine brown sugar, coconut, flour, raisins, fruit peel, cherries, baking powder, mixed essence, and nutmeg in a large bowl using a large wooden spoon.
  3. 3
    Combine margarine and shortening in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour melted mixture into flour mixture, alternating with milk, until batter is just mixed. Add water, a teaspoon at a time, if more moisture is needed.
  4. 4
    Pour batter into the prepared baking pans, smoothing the tops with the back of a wet spoon. Sprinkle white sugar over each loaf.
  5. 5
    Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick or skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes. Invert onto cooking racks.
