Preheat the oven to 180C and line a loaf tin.
Spread the shredded coconut on a baking tray and toast until slightly golden, about 3 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the toasted coconut and the sugar.
Sift in the flours, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then whisk to combine.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs together.
Add the coconut milk, coconut oil, and vanilla to the eggs.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, ensuring not to overmix.
Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and bake for 45 to 50 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
