coconut cream
🥗Healthier: light coconut milk
💰Cheaper: evaporated milk
Light coconut milk reduces fat content while still providing coconut flavor.
sugar
🥗Healthier: honey
💰Cheaper: brown sugar
Honey offers a natural sweetness, while brown sugar is often less expensive.
butter
🥗Healthier: coconut oil
💰Cheaper: margarine
Coconut oil maintains a tropical flavor, while margarine is often more affordable.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a baking dish with butter or oil.
Mix coconut cream, sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
Stir in vanilla extract and salt until incorporated.
In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 30-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
