  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 eggs

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 °F. Grease and flour a 9X13-inch pan.
  2. In a small bowl, combine both flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a bigger bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar until mixture forms a ribbon. Stir in zest, milk and oil until combined.
  3. Fold in dry ingredients and coconut. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Baking time may vary depending on the oven, so take a peek at 45 minutes to see how the cake looks.
