Ingredients for the coconut cake:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
• 125 g butter<\/li>\n
• 100 g caster sugar<\/li>\n
• 16 g vanillin sugar (or seeds from 1 vanilla pod)<\/li>\n
• 2 large eggs<\/li>\n
• 200 g plain flour<\/li>\n
• 2 teaspoons baking powder<\/li>\n
• 50 g desiccated coconut<\/li>\n
• 100 ml coconut milk<\/li>\n
• 3\u20134 apples<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Additionally:<\/span><\/p>\n

  \n
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    All ingredients should be at room temperature.<\/p>\n

    Sift the flour and baking powder together, mix with the desiccated coconut and set aside. Peel the apples, cut them in half and remove the cores. Score the rounded side of each apple half with a sharp knife. Mix the lemon juice with \u00bd cup of water and soak the apples briefly to prevent them from browning during baking.<\/p>\n

    Place the butter and sugar (and vanillin sugar, if using) in the bowl of a mixer and beat until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the dry ingredients alternately with the coconut milk, mixing gently with a spatula or on the lowest mixer speed until just combined.<\/p>\n

    Line a 23 cm cake tin with baking paper. Transfer the batter to the tin and smooth the surface. Arrange the apples on top, rounded and scored side facing upwards.<\/p>\n

    Bake at 160\u00b0C for about 45 minutes, or longer if necessary, until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool completely. Drizzle with coconut icing and sprinkle with desiccated or flaked coconut.<\/p>\n

    Ingredients for the coconut icing:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
    • \u00bd cup icing sugar<\/li>\n
    • 2\u20133 tablespoons coconut milk<\/li>\n
    • desiccated coconut or coconut flakes, for decoration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Mix the icing sugar and coconut milk together with the back of a spoon until smooth. If the icing is too thick, add a little more coconut milk. If it’s too thin, add more icing sugar. Decorate the cake with the coconut.<\/p>\n

      Enjoy!<\/p>\n
