Ingredients
- 1/2 cup lime juice (3-4 large juicy limes)
- zest from 3 limes
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 3/4 cup apple sauce
- 1/4 cup coconut oil in liquid form ( unrefined will add to the coconut flavour but refined will do)
- 1 & 3/4 cup cake flour (you can sub all purpose but the cake won't be quite as light. If in the UK use sieved plain flour)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 teaspoon baking powder (I love this one as it is aluminium free & works really well)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup cane sugar (any other granulated sugar will work here)
- 1/2 cup powdered / icing sugar. (I use this organic & vegan brand)
- 2 - 3 tablespoons lime juice
- Zest of 1 lime to decorate
Recipe Description
Citrus and tropical flavours combine in this light & delicious Lime & Coconut Cake with a sticky, zesty glaze.
Lime and coconut are two of my favourite flavours and they come together perfectly in this delightfully sticky and zesty cake.
The tender lime sponge is full of citrus flavour and heavily flecked with shredded coconut which lends a slightly chewy texture. Top that with an extra pop of flavour from the zesty, sticky lime glaze and you will be in tropical heaven!
