Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 1/2 cup milk, or more as needed
- 1/4 cup simple syrup, or to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, which is equivalent to 175 degrees Celsius. To prevent the cake from sticking, lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
2
Mix together shredded coconut and granulated sugar in a bowl until well combined. Gradually incorporate all-purpose flour into the mixture, stirring until everything is fully incorporated. Create a small indentation in the center of the bowl.
3
In a separate, smaller bowl, beat eggs together until they become light and fluffy. Pour the egg mixture into the center indentation of the bowl, making sure to leave a small border around the edges. Add milk gradually, stirring until you reach a consistency that is slightly thicker than liquid, but still pourable.
4
Pour the cake batter into your prepared baking dish and bake in a preheated oven until it's golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, taking 20 to 25 minutes.
5
Remove the cake from the oven and let it rest for 20 minutes. Once cooled, drizzle a simple syrup over the top of the cake before serving.
