It is true that coconut is not an easy fruit, why fool ourselves. It also cost me a little at first, don’t believe it. It is not a strawberry or a cherry that everyone likes, but it doesn’t hurt to give it a chance in the form of a subtle touch because it gives a tropical touch and exotic to any dish, whether salty or sweet. Impossible to get bored!
You also have to know that you can integrate coconut into your healthy recipes in various ways: grated, laminated, dehydrated, in water or in the form of milk or cream. You will easily find all of them in the supermarket or food store. Easier, impossible.
In addition to the recipe that I bring you on this occasion, perfect for those days of sweet cravings, there are many others that I encourage you to try. For example, you can take note of the coconut cakes that you will have ready in 2 minutes, or the coconut muffins without sugar or flour that are perfect for breakfast, snacks or as a snack. Haven’t you tried coquitos yet? This traditional recipe is delicious and really easy to prepare.
Coconut cake without flour or sugar
This recipe, which I can tell you will become one of your favorites, comes from Cristina Fernández Petite (@petit_fit). Read the list of ingredients carefully, take a look at the video and see how easy it is. And how good it is!
In addition, it is the fastest because it is done in the microwave, which will save you precious time, in addition to not dirtying the ceramic hob or having to turn on the oven, which is always a bit cumbersome (and very hot). In any case, If you prefer to bake ityou can do it without problem at 180ºC for 25 minutes, or in the air fryer at 180ºC for 18 minutes.
Ingredients
- 200 g of natural high protein yogurt
- 100 g peeled apple
- 60 g grated coconut
- 2 eggs
Preparation method
Cristina uses a 15 centimeter mold but you can use the one you have closest to hand, it can even be rectangular or square.
Have you seen what it looks like? Here you have the step by step so that you don’t have the desire to sink your teeth into it.
- Peel the apple and puree it until you have a homogeneous puree. Don’t have an apple but you do have a ripe banana or pear? Perfect, because it is also delicious and helps you take advantage of those fruits.
- Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and mix well. If you would like to add a sweetener, this is the time to do so.
- Next, place the mixture in a microwave-safe mold and cook at 750W for 6 minutes. Each mold and each micro is a world, so you may have to leave it a little less or a little more.
- And all you have to do is take out the mold carefully so as not to burn yourself, unmold it and serve it with your favorite toppings.
