The recipe calls for 2 cups of all-purpose gluten-free flour, ensuring the bread is suitable for those avoiding gluten.

How is the bread made vegan without eggs?

This recipe uses a flax seed 'egg' substitute, made by blending 2 tablespoons of flax seed with 6 tablespoons of water until thick and creamy, to bind the ingredients.

What gives this bread its unique grapefruit flavor?

The bread incorporates 3/4 cup of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and 1 tablespoon of grapefruit zest directly into the batter for a bright, tangy citrus note.

How should I store leftover Grapefruit Coconut Bread?

Once cooled, store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days, or wrap tightly and freeze for longer storage, warming slices as needed.
