Coconut-Pineapple Loaf Cake
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups sweetened shredded coconut
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus extra for greasing the pan
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled, plus extra for dusting the pan
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 can (20 ounces) pineapple chunks in juice, well drained
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spread the shredded coconut on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted, tossing occasionally, for about 6 to 10 minutes. Set it aside.
- Butter and flour a 9-by-5-inch (8-cup) loaf pan and set it aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
- Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the butter and sugar together until they become light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately add the flour mixture in three parts and the sour cream in two parts, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing.
- Gently fold the drained pineapple and 1 cup of toasted coconut into the batter using a rubber spatula. Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top, and then sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of toasted coconut on top.
- Bake the cake for 65 to 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (cover the pan with foil halfway through baking if needed). Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove it from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
