Apricot And Coconut Cake Food

APRICOT CAKE WITH COCONUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly grease the sides of a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper (*as shown in the pics above).
• Cut the apricots into halves and remove the core. If they're not fully ripe, cut into quarters or thinner slices as I did (*see pics above).
• In a mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
• To a measuring jar add the non-dairy milk, yogurt, oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Mix to combine.
• Pour the wet mixture into the flour mixture and stir using a spatula just until combined. Fold in shredded coconut as desired.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared springform pan. Place the sliced apricots on top, then sprinkle with coconut flakes and brown sugar.
• Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center of the cake comes out almost clean with just a few crumbs attached.
• Let cool before serving. Enjoy!
