We are at the gates of autumn: the weather is a bit crazy and the impending coolness makes me want to turn on the oven. But it's not that cold yet: I need a dessert that is suitable for the “transition” season, but that isn't too heavy. So no chocolate, no butter, no cream: they would make the cake too heavy!
Idea! Do you know what I could prepare? A cake from the oven but with an exotic ingredient and another fresh: a hot cake with grated coconut pulp and yogurt! Yes, yes: I have decided. Let's prepare it together!

Materials Needed

- Whisk or wooden spoon

Preparation
- Sift the white flour through a colander and pour it into a bowl. Add the grated coconut and sugar.

- As a last ingredient, add the sifted baking powder.
- Preheat the oven to 180 ° C.
- Line a 24 cm diameter springform pan with parchment paper.
The alternative OK
As an alternative to baking paper, it is possible to brush the pan with oil and sprinkle with a little flour: in this way, the cake will not stick to the mold.- Pour the coconut cream into the pan and bake for 40 minutes. The toothpick test is recommended to verify that the heart of the cake is also cooked to perfection.
- Serve the cake with icing sugar or with grated coconut.
Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
The contrast between the heat of the oven and the freshness of the coconut gave me the right idea to prepare this delicious cake. If you want to make it even more delicious, you can also enrich it with some dark chocolate chips or - why not? - even fill it with a chocolate cream, but I like it this way, natural, perhaps accompanied by a cup of good coconut milk.Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
