COCONUT LEMON POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the dry ingredients together.
• Add the room temperature butter and oil then beat until the mixture is well combined and starts clumping together. You want the butter to be dispersed with no lumps remaining in the flour.
• Whisk the eggs, coconut milk, lemon juice and zest together.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the batter while mixing on a low speed. Beat until just combined.
• Pour the batter into a greased and lined loaf pan (the one I used was 9"x 5" or 22cm x 12cm).
• Place in the oven and bake for 45-60 minutes or golden brown and a skewer inserted comes out clean.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 20 minutes in the pan before turning out and cooling completely.
• Whisk the lemon juice, coconut milk and icing sugar together then drizzle over the cake.
• Decorate with strawberries and coconut flakes (optional) and serve.

LEMON SNACKING CAKE WITH COCONUT GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-9-inch pan, and then line with parchment paper, letting the two long ends hang over the edge of the pan by at least 2 inches.
• Grate 2 tablespoons of zest from the lemons. Juice the lemons so you have 1/4 cup/60 milliliters juice. Add juice and zest to a medium bowl, then whisk in oil, sour cream, coconut milk and eggs.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk wet mixture into dry mixture until smooth.
• Scrape batter into baking pan and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle evenly with shredded sweetened coconut. Bake until the top of the cake springs back when lightly pressed in the center, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely.
• When cake is cool, make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, oil and salt. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Pour over the cake, and grate some lemon zest over the top. Let the glaze set for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Mix in the vanilla wafer crumbs, coconut and pecans. Pour into the pan and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack.
• For the glaze: Mix the sugar, cornstarch, salt, lemon zest and juice, 1 1/2 cups of water and coconut in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring until thickened, for about 15 minutes. Let cool slightly, then using a toothpick, poke several holes in the top of the cake and drizzle the glaze over the cake.

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Butter and flour an 8x5-inch loaf pan.
• Sift 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons whole wheat flour, cornstarch, and baking soda together into a bowl.
• Mix soy milk and vinegar together in a small bowl. Let stand until curdled.

Add the flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time, mixing on low speed until batter is smooth.
• Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes. Place pan on a wire rack on its side and cool for about 10 minutes.
• Combine 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and lemon juice in a small bowl to make glaze. Add more sugar or milk to reach the desired consistency.
• Remove cake from the loaf pan. Drizzle glaze on top. Sprinkle coconut flakes evenly over the top.
