This moist and flavourful dessert is a guilt-free indulgence that will satisfy your sweet tooth without compromising on taste. In this recipe, we'll guide you through the simple steps to create this simple but wonderful cake that's perfect for any occasion.

When baking, I always use scales and measure the amounts in grams, because it’s so much more accurate than using cups. Replacing butter with coconut oil increases the delicious coconut flavour. I usually just add the honey and coconut oil and then microwave for a few seconds to melt. It smells incredible!

Then add the eggs and shredded/desiccated coconut and whisk thoroughly to combine.

Then whisk or stir in the flour and baking powder.

Once it’s all combined, scrape into your lined baking tin.

Sprinkle with some extra shredded coconut. This will gently toast while your cake is baking!

It smells so beautiful. Allow it too cool before removing from the tin.

I baked my cake at gas mark 4 for 55 minutes but my oven is not a fan oven. Test your cake after 50 minutes by inserting a skewer. If it comes out clean the cake is ready.

Serve at room temperature with a pot of tea or serve warm with custard for a comforting dessert.

With this Refined Sugar-Free Coconut Cake recipe, you can have your cake and eat it too, without worrying about refined sugar. It is also dairy free but not egg free. This delightful dessert shows that cutting down on sugar doesn't mean sacrificing flavour.
Whether it's a special occasion or a simple craving, this cake is bound to please your taste buds. So, gather your ingredients and treat yourself to a slice of tropical paradise, guilt-free!
