Carrot, almond, fig and coconut loaf

This deliciously light and moist loaf is a great snack for the whole family. I have baked this a number of times now. I often make two at once as it freezes well. Its delicious warmed up or toasted. You could add dried apricots or dates to replace the figs if you fancy.
