  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1 can (450g) crushed pineapple, drained
  • 2 large bananas, mashed

To Make the Cake

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 6x10 inch baking pan with parchment paper leaving an overhang on two sides like a sling.

  2. In a small bowl mix together the cream cheese, honey, lemon zest, and juice .

  3. Frost the top of the cooled cake and sprinkle the chopped pecans on top.
