Indulge in Paradise: A Heavenly Gluten-Free Coconut Layer Cake Recipe
What’s up coconut cake gluten-free on the menu today using alen flour brown rice flour it’s got a sour cream addition to the crumb which adds a lovely sourness to it top has a cream cheese frosting and that double whammy sour front and a true celebration of coconut that is the coconut layer cake this cake is the base for any other.
Thing you want to add to it you could go Tropical you could add chocolate you could do tons of things world is your oyster and as with any cake let’s start by prepping our pans three nighted pans get them greased up with a neutral oil or butter nice coverage with a brush then we’re going to struggle to open some parchment paper why don’t they make.
Riging Cutters on these I mean I know why but you know it’s the natural one all right square shape fold it over and over itself make some triangles and we’re going to measure almost like making three paper airplanes with your pan flipped over measure from the middle and cut it with some scissors to the outside might to trim off a little if.
It’s a little long but no big deal unfold it should stick nice with the oil then give it a little more just for fun now grab some dry ingredients brown rice flour baking powder almond meal baking soda and salt we’ll make up our sifted dry ingredients that we’ll get into a large bowl and have on hand to add to our mix as we’re going in a little while.
Add all those to a sifter and work your way through woo last but not least toss some salt in cuz it wouldn’t have made it through the sifter with a whisk we’re just going to combine these briefly as we do an interesting pan down from the cookbook section Good Times whenever I’m making any cake I like to have the dry ingredients prepped.
And ready if I need to add them if the mixture is curdling at all you know with any circumstance it can happen coconut cakes are a recipe you really want to use sweetened coconut for instead of shredded coconut this is more like candy than regular coconut and when you hit these little pieces inside cake they’re going to come across more like candy.
Than shredded coconut so I normally would never use it for anything else but for coconut cake it’s the way to go now for the backbone ingredients coconut milk sour cream egg whites sugar butter vanilla extract and sweet and shredded coconut grab your stand mixer pop that guy open we’re going to fit it with a petal attachment today.
Move it over so it looks better and add your softened butter and sugar let’s make this pale and fluffy give it a few minutes until it’s nice and soft then we’ll start slowly incorporating our egg whites this is going to cause a little bit of Separation initially use a little bit of your flour mixture to help bind it together by doing a glutenfree mix.
The Binding is going to be a little weaker than with regular flour no gluten so a little bit extra throughout the batch while you’re mixing will help add your sour cream and keep adding a little if it looks a little separated check to make sure it’s all getting Incorporated by scraping your bowl now toss in the rest of your dry ingredient mixture.
Bring it together while adding your coconut milk and lastly folding in the shredded coconut by hand all right the best way to do this to make consistent is to weigh your batter so on top of scale start off you know this is a little guessing game unless you had the final measurement I happened to get 10 g off on this I think it was 440 anyways.
Offset spatula tastes good smooth these suckers out we’re going to put these into a 350° fahit preheated oven for about 20 25 maybe 30 minutes depending on your oven every oven’s different so just keep that in mind we’re going to take these to a nice golden brown and once a toothpick comes out clean a couple crumbs no big deal so don’t worry.
About that now we let them cool and then we decorate I’ve noticed that with gluten-free sponges I often don’t get the same kind of puff that I do with regular flow so makes one thing easier and that’s leveling these These are already level so I don’t have to mess around with that even though I had the tool ready for it if I needed to a.
Leveler all right let’s make our cream cheese frosting butter cream cheese whip these guys together until nice and pale and fluffy stir down the bowl a couple times and add your salt and vanilla extract at this step grab a scale and a sifter let’s put some powdered sugar AKA confectioner sugar through the sifter.
Whisking is a sophisticated way hands work as well just work it all through to make it nice and consistently not clumpy which will make your life easier if there are clumps in it you can usually beat those out but still a pain clean off your work surface and whip the crap out of this bring it up to a nice pale white consistency you want it fluffy.
With quite a bit of air enough to really make it soft on the pet all right turntable cake decorating offset spatula or icing spatula if you prefer I like the offset spatulas we’re going to put a full approximately at top of each one of these to make up our middle layers just try to make it as even as possible while bringing it out to the edges to meet the.
Outer layer once you add that and it’s all stacked up all right next one on it’s much easier to do with a little cake mover like these there’s probably a better name for that but in my mind it’s a cake mover get this guy smoothed out now the fun begins Distributing frosting evenly masterful challenge what’s nice about this cake is it’s going to have.
Coconut smashed down anyway so it doesn’t have to be perfect I’m just trying to get it pretty Square which I’ve almost done I’m using a paint edger for my cake scraper you can use whatever you got on hand or the real thing if you have it now sprinkle on some sweet and shredded coconut just trying to make a nice even layer.
Pressing it on the top inside kind of just picking up the mess as you go there’s really no perfect way to do this so just do it to your best of your abilities and at the end of the day it’s a nice messy cake that doesn’t have to be perfect scrape off your turntable it helps a lot to chill your cake down a bit before you move it to whatever.
Surface you’re doing I decided to go Rogue and made my life a little bit more difficult as it was semi sticky on the bottom add it to a fridge like I said you could do this before make your life easier here before cutting into it any things you mess up on the sides like if it gets compressed you can always just covered up with coconut with.
A knife get yourself a nice slice all right going sophisticated today I brought a fork out to play coconut cake is one that any birthday or celebration you bring it to you will see the light and people’s eyes come out when they’re eating this I mean it’s just wow you know I promise they’ll laugh they’ll cry and love you forever man does cream.
Cheese frosting kickass or what anything you add that to just boom so much more than a regular buttercream I mean every time I have a cream cheese frosting I think why don’t we always do this why are we ever using basic buttercreams they’re just so blasé having that little sour touch at the end makes such a difference cake like this having sour.
Cream inside as well subtly adding that combination of sourness to both both the crumb and to the frosting what a match made in heaven and a true celebration of coconut I’m going to celebrate some more coconut I think almost like three making three making almost like making three paper.
Airplanes dreaded coconut and it really comes apart comes apart a
