Yield Serves 18-22

Number Of Ingredients 21

Cake:
2 cups granulated sugar
¾ cup (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled
3 large eggs, room temperature
3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup sour cream, room temperature
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon strawberry extract
3-4 drops red food coloring (optional)
Coconut Frosting:
2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup heavy cream, cold
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon coconut extract (optional)
Pinch salt
¾ cup sweetened coconut flakes, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the cake:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Liberally prepare 3 9-inch round pans with the nonstick method of your choice.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, cream together the granulated sugar and butter on medium-high speed until nice and fluffy, about 6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the strawberries in your food processor and purée until smooth. Set aside.
  • With your stand mixer running, add the eggs 1 at a time, combining well after each addition and scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
  • Change your mixer speed to medium-low and add the strawberry purée slowly into the batter. Continue mixing while you tend to the dry ingredients.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add ½ of the flour mixture to your stand mixer bowl. Continue to mix on low speed to combine.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and oil and add to your stand mixer bowl.
  • Pour in the remaining flour mixture and continue to mix on low until well incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, strawberry extract, and food coloring, if using. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and mix the batter until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Evenly pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake for 23 to 28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a layer comes out clean.
  • Let the layers cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then invert onto wire racks. Let cool to room temperature. Lightly cover the layers with foil or plastic wrap so they do not dry out.
  • For the frosting:
  • Clean your stand mixer bowl and whisk attachment. Beat the cream cheese on high speed until it begins to thicken and become fluffy.
  • Turn your mixer down to low speed and carefully add the confectioners' sugar. Once the sugar is fully incorporated, turn your mixer speed back to high and continue whipping.
  • Add the heavy cream; vanilla extract; coconut extract, if using; and salt and continue to mix until a smooth, light, and fluffy frosting is achieved.
  • To assemble:
  • Once the layers are completely cooled, place 1 layer on a serving plate. Spread just the top of the layer with ⅓ of the frosting. Add the second layer and spread with another ⅓ of the frosting. Add the final layer, bottom-side up, and spread with the remaining frosting. Frost the top and the side of the cake. Gently pat the side and the top of the cake with coconut flakes. Serve at room temperature.

STRAWBERRY COCONUT CHIA SEED BANANA BREAD RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Strawberry Coconut Chia Seed Banana Bread Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by PBogho57

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup ripe mashed banana (about 2 to 3 bananas)
1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted and cooled
1/3 cup dark brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 egg
1/4 cup nonfat plain greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (soy, coconut, or skim also work)
3/4 cup diced organic ripe strawberries
1/4 cup smashed organic raspberries (or you can use more strawberries)
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut, plus 3 tablespoons for topping (sweetened is fine, too)
2 tablespoons chia seeds
2 to 4 strawberries, sliced for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 9-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. (I love Trader Joe's Coconut Oil spray.) In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In a separate large bowl, beat together banana, brown sugar, egg, coconut oil vanilla, yogurt, and almond milk until smooth and creamy. Slowly add dry mixture to wet ingredients, and mix until combined. Gently fold strawberries, raspberries, coconut and chia seeds into the batter. Place batter in prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle top evenly with 3 tablespoons of coconut. Place sliced strawberries over the top of the bread. Bake for 50-65 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack for 20 minutes, then remove from pan and return to wire rack to finish cooling. Bread is even better the next day (they always are). Bread will stay fresh for a few days when wrapped tightly. I love this bread with strawberry jam and peanut butter.

COCONUT STRAWBERRY CAKE



Coconut Strawberry Cake image

Here in the South, strawberry season comes fairly early, so I'm on the hunt for some new recipes. This one is from the California Strawberry Commission.

Provided by Pinay0618

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

nonstick cooking spray
all-purpose flour, for dusting
2 cups sifted cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 large eggs, separated
1 cup light coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 large egg whites
1 teaspoon coconut extract
1 cup unsweetened dried shredded coconut, toasted
1/2 cup strawberry preserves
4 cups about 1 1/4 pounds whole stemmed california strawberries

Steps:

  • To make cake: Place oven rack in bottom third of oven; heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray two 8-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Line bottom of each pan with a circle of parchment paper, spray the paper and dust inside of each pan with all-purpose flour, tapping out excess.
  • Sift together cake flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
  • In bowl of electric mixer with paddle attachment, cream butter at medium speed until soft and light. Add sugar and continue to mix about 5 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating after each addition until completely mixed.
  • On low speed, alternately add flour mixture in 3 additions and coconut milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Add extract and beat at low speed until completely mixed.
  • In clean bowl with whisk attachment, beat egg whites at high speed to soft peaks. Gently fold one third of the egg whites into the batter; fold in remaining egg whites gently but thoroughly. Divide batter between prepared cake pans and bake about 35 minutes or until cake springs back when touched and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
  • Cool on rack 5 minutes; run a small knife around edge of each pan and carefully invert cake onto rack. Remove pan and cool cake completely; remove paper before assembling cake.
  • To make icing: In small saucepan combine sugar, water and cream of tartar. Bring to a boil, covered, over medium heat; do not stir. When sugar is completely dissolved, uncover and boil 5 minutes longer.
  • In bowl of electric mixer with whisk attachment, beat egg whites at high speed to soft peaks. Continue to beat while slowly pouring hot syrup onto egg whites; add extract and beat until cool.
  • To assemble cake: Spread 1/4 cup of the preserves on top of 1 cake layer. Thinly slice 2 cups of the strawberries and arrange in 1 layer on top of preserves. Spread remaining 1/4 cup preserves on bottom of second cake layer and invert onto first layer. Spread icing on top and sides of assembled layers; pat coconut onto sides of cake. Arrange remaining strawberries on top of cake, stem side down.
  • Tips: Substitute white cake made from a mix; add 1/2 teaspoon of coconut extract to batter. Substitute pre-made white frosting; add coconut extract to taste.
