Set aside 1/2 cup flour mixture and add the rest to the creamed mixture. Add vanilla and mix thoroughly. Add the remaining 1/2 cup flour to coconut and nuts and stir to coat. Then add to mixture and combine thoroughly. Pour into a greased 9 x 5 glass loaf pan and bake in a 325 degree preheated oven for 60 minutes or until done. Cool for 10 minutes before removing and cutting into slices.
