Apples-Coconut Cake

Coconut oil, juice, and milk are part of the healthiest foods to be consumed now to replace the regular way of making cake. I have been using coconut oil for various daily routines for my skin, hair etc.… When baking, I replace most of the butter in the recipes with coconut oil. Try it and you will love it.

Ingredients:
Two cups self-raising flour
3/4 to 1 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine (room temperature)
1/2 cup coconut oil
3 eggs
1 cup coconut milk
1/3 cup coconut flakes
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
3 cups apples diced (use the varieties of apple, such as Granny Smith, red delicious, and gala)

Directions:
Grease and flour cake pan with coconut oil and flour.

Preheat oven to 350°.
In a bowl, add flour and ground cinnamon

In a KitchenAid stand mixer with a beater attachment, add coconut oil, butter, and sugar. Turn machine on and beat for 3 minutes. Add egg one at a time and continue beating until light and fluffy.

Add milk and vanilla. Beat well. Add flour and beat well with egg mixture. Stop the machine occasionally to scrape the better. Stir in apples. Pour the batter in the prepared cake pan.

Top with coconut flakes.

Bake in the oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool for 20 minutes before serving.
