Do

  2. Place sugar and coconut into TM bowl and mill 10 sec/speed 9.

  3. Add butter and whip 30 sec/speed 5.

  4. Add eggs and combine 20 sec/speed 4.

  5. Add yoghurt (or yoghurt and milk mix), flour and citrus juice and mix 20 sec/speed 5.

  6. Pour half the batter into the loaf tin and top with 1/3 of the raspberries.

  7. Pour the remainder of the batter into the tin and top with another 1/3 of the raspberries, setting aside the remaining 1/3 of the raspberries for the topping.

  8. Using a knife, gently swirl the batter to incorporate the raspberries into the mix. Smooth the top of the loaf with a spatula ensuring all the raspberries are below the batter

  9. Bake the loaf for 50 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.

  11. To make Icing: Place icing sugar and citrus juice into a bowl. Slowly add coconut milk, stirring as you go until you get a mix that is slightly runny, but thick enough to stay put on top of the loaf, allowing a little to run over the sides. Spread over cooled cake and decorate with remaining raspberries.
