Also, if the eggs aren’t at room temp, it won’t puff as high…

I’m considering making this for a friend and have read the comments thoroughly. I am thinking the ones who thought the batter was too thin may have an issue with the brand or age of their coconut flour. I had some coconut flour in my freezer for a looonngg time (found it after who knows how long) and wanted to use it up in some pancakes. Needless to say they didn’t rise at all. I am thinking it was old because it was a good one from WFN, and I always have great luck with their products. I have a different brand now (Coconut Secret from Azure) and will see how that goes. It’s a little coarser than WFN. I don’t know, maybe that helps someone?

You can make cookies out of the cake that doesn”t rise with cookie cutters.And then put frosting and sprinkles. Put less eggs. Maricris and my mom .

Would lemon be a viable substitute for the orange? I have a fridge full of lemons, but no oranges.

I just made a slightly altered version of this cake today. I’m bringing it to my work tomorrow, otherwise I’d have pictures posted on my blog already. Thanks for the inspiration and hope you can read my other recipe in the next couple days

looks amazing! I will have to try this today. What kind of coconut milk? The type in the dairy section (near nut milks) or the kind in the Asian food isle?

Just made this today & it was awesome Added 6 Tbls of xylitol instead of the honey & doubled the orange zest. Did strawberry whipped cream frosting w/ sliced berries in the middle. It didn’t rise much for me either but that was ok; cooked it in a 9″ square pan, sliced it in half for a 2-layer cake & it was the perfect amount for us. Have added this to my collection permanently. Thanks so much!
