For the cake you need:
- Eggs
- Plant-based milk or milk
- Whole wheat flour
- Cocoa powder
- Shredded coconut
- Whipped fresh cheese or natural yogurt
- Vanilla Yummy drops or essence (optional)
- Coconut cream/milk
- Baking powder
Which plant-based milk to use?
You can use any drink or milk, I personally used almond milk.
Can I use another flour?
Yes, you can use oat, white, spelt, among others.
How can I substitute Yummy drops?
You can use vanilla essence or a sweetener to taste. If you add honey, agave syrup, coconut sugar or other sugar, it will alter the nutritional table of the recipe, thus adding more sugar and calories.
I don't like coconut, now what?
Coconut is not totally mandatory, I used the cream to fill, but you can use, for example, a chocolate or vanilla pudding in the middle, or a flavored yogurt that you think matches.
How to make this recipe for snacks or breakfasts?
As I mentioned above, a great option is to use yogurt to fill instead of coconut cream. Options like vanilla whipped fresh cheese from Lidl, vanilla or coconut yogurt from Lindahls, protein chocolate pudding from Lidl, whipped fresh cheese with a little sweetener, among many other options. The cake dough itself has no sugar, so spice up the filling as you see fit.
