In a medium bowl, sift flour and baking powder, then add the spices and mix with a wire whisk to combine and set aside.

In a separate large mixing bowl, add the sugar, melted coconut oil, warm milk, vanilla extract, and grated coconut, and mix to combine.

Add the dry ingredients in half or thirds and mix well to combine.

After adding the last of the dry ingredients, add the fruits and mix to combine.

Turn out onto a clean floured work surface and knead for approximately 5 minutes with additional flour that was set aside.

Divide the dough and shape into loaves, then place in prepared loaf pans.

Bake between 325º and 350º for approximately 45-60 minutes or until a wooden skewer comes out clean.
