Directions
Cake

- Add in 3 tsp baking powder.
- Add in 1/4 tsp salt.
- Sift the dry ingredients.
- Pour 1/2 cup granulated sugar into the mixing bowl with the sifted dry ingredients. Whisk the dry ingredients to make sure everything is evenly distributed.
- In a separate mixing bowl, pour in 1/4 cup Coco Goods coconut oil.
- Pour in 2/3 cup Coco Goods coconut milk. (Make sure to shake the can of coconut milk well before opening.)
- Crack in 4 eggs and 2 egg whites.
- Add tbsp vanilla extract.
- Whisk until the wet ingredients are well blended.
- Zest 1 lemon into a separate bowl.

- Line the bottom of a 9 inch cake pan with parchment paper and grease the sides with some oil or butter.
- Pour the finished batter into the cake pan and smooth out the top with the spatula.
- Place the cake pan into the oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Take the cake pan out of the oven and let it cool.
- Transfer the cake onto a large serving plate.
- *Optional: Poke holes around the top of the cake with a toothpick and use the juice from the lemon as simple syrup. It adds a nice touch of lemon flavor and acidity.
