Lemon Coconut Cake is perhaps one of the most delicious cakes you can have on hand for almost any situation!
Coconut, Butter, Almond Meal and of course loads of lemony zest and juice.
The recipe for this Lemon Coconut Cake ensures the cake stays moist all through cooking and it keeps really well for days – especially if you store it in the refrigerator.
I’ve used desiccated coconut but you could use shredded coconut if you prefer. You could also switch out the lemon for lime juice for a slightly different flavour.
