How To Make Lime And Coconut Cake
- Preparation: Preheat oven to 180C. Grease and line the base and both sides of a 10cm x 22cm (base measurement) loaf pan with baking paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the self-raising flour, desiccated coconut, lime rind, and caster sugar. In a separate small bowl, whisk the melted butter, eggs, and coconut milk. Add this wet mixture to the flour mixture and stir until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the surface.
- Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for about 45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Once baked, let the cake sit in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Prepare the Lime Drizzle Icing: In a bowl, add the icing sugar. Gradually mix in the lime juice until you achieve a runny paste consistency. Drizzle this icing over the cooled cake.
