Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup coconut milk (full-fat)
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp coconut extract (optional)
  • ½ cup cream cheese (for frosting)
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar (for frosting)

Instructions

  1. Grease the slow cooker insert with non-stick spray or butter.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, shredded coconut, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix coconut milk, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and coconut extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared slow cooker. Cover with a kitchen towel before placing the lid on.

Notes

Make sure to use a kitchen towel under the slow cooker lid to catch condensation. For a more intense coconut flavor, don’t skip the coconut extract. This cake also works well as cupcakes—just adjust the cook time!
