A quick and easy Thermomix Strawberry & Coconut Loaf... the perfect way to make use of in season strawberries!!
This Thermomix Strawberry & Coconut Loaf is my go-to recipe when strawberries are in season. They're cheap, they're delicious and they're massively bursting with flavour.
I love this recipe because the yoghurt keeps everything moist, while the strawberries add the perfect tang. Never mind the fact that it takes less than 10 minutes to prepare... talk about easy!!

This recipe turned out just how I had hoped! Nice crumbly texture. I replaced the strawberries with fresh raspberries.
Alesha says
I made this gorgeous cake today and it was devine. I replaced the strawberries with frozen raspberries as that is what I had in my freezer to use up. It was perfect, very dense and the whole cake was gobbled up by family. Thank you for a fabulous recipe!
Sue says
This loaf is divine! Thank you for sharing the recipe. Could I use this recipe to make cupcake/muffin size cakes? Would I just need to reduce the cooking time?
Thank you!
Lucy Mathieson says

Nikki says
Thanks heaps for all these great recipes and tips. I am very new to this mean machine and can't wait to use it more. Especially meals in the Verona. I have a question in regards to this recipe. Could I use thickened cream instead of Greek yogurt?
