INGREDIENTS
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup fine dried shredded unsweetened coconut
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 room temperature eggs
2/3 cup well-stirred, unsweetened coconut milk
8 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10.5 by 7.5-inch rectangular baking dish with butter. Line the bottom and long sides of the dish with parchment paper, allowing the paper to extend past the edges, and grease the paper. Alternatively, grease the dish and dust it with coconut, shaking off any excess.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. 
  • Add the coconut and sugar to the flour mixture and whisk to combine.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and coconut milk.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
  • Finally, add the melted butter and stir until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake in the center of the oven for 30 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean and the cake bounces back when lightly pressed.
  • Remove the cake from the oven and let it stand for 10 minutes. Run a butter knife around the cake to gently release. Peel off the parchment paper from the sides. Invert the cake, peel off the bottom piece of parchment paper, and cool on a wire rack.
