Ingredients (for 2–3 servings)

  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut

  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

  1. Mix – In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy. Add shredded coconut, coconut milk, honey (if using), vanilla, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.
  2. Pour – Transfer the batter into a greased microwave-safe mug or bowl.
  3. Cook – Microwave on high for 2–3 minutes (or until the cake is firm and springy).
    • Alternative: Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 12–15 minutes if you prefer an oven version.
  4. Cool & Serve – Let it cool slightly, then top with extra coconut flakes, Greek yogurt, or fresh berries if desired.
