Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour (360 g)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder (8 g)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda (2.5 g)
- 3/4 teaspoon fine salt (4 g)
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (227 g)
- 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar (350 g)
- 3 tablespoons grated lemon zest (18 g)
- 4 large eggs (200 g)
- 1 cup coconut milk (240 g)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice (60 g)
- 3/4 cup shredded coconut (60 g)
- 1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar (180 g)
- 1/2 cup coconut flakes (45 g)
Instructions
- Prepare every pan groove. Brush softened butter upward through each ridge of a 10-cup Bundt pan, including the center tube. Dust with flour, rotate to coat, and tap out every loose patch.
- Build a light lemon batter. Rub zest into sugar, then beat with butter for 3 minutes until pale and smooth. Add eggs one at a time. Alternate whisked dry ingredients with coconut milk and lemon juice, beginning and ending with flour.
- Fill without air tunnels. Spoon batter around the prepared pan in several mounds. Smooth the top and tap the pan firmly twice on a folded towel to release large pockets. Run a narrow spatula once through the batter without scraping the pan.
- Bake through the inner ring. Bake at 350°F for 45 to 50 minutes. The top should spring back, and a long tester inserted beside the center tube should emerge with a few dry crumbs.
- Release, cool, and glaze. Cool in the pan for 12 minutes, loosen the edges gently, and invert onto a rack. Cool completely. Whisk confectioners’ sugar with lemon juice to a thick ribbon, spoon it over the crown, and.
