- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare it for baking the pudding cake.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
- Whisk eggs and sugar: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add coconut milk and vanilla: Pour the coconut milk and vanilla extract into the egg and sugar mixture, blending everything thoroughly.
- Combine wet and dry: Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently to create a smooth batter.
- Fold in pistachios and coconut: Carefully fold the chopped pistachios and shredded coconut into the batter to maintain texture and ensure even distribution.
- Prepare the baking pan: Grease a cake pan to prevent sticking, then pour the batter evenly into the pan.
- Bake the cake: Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool before serving: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing and serving to enhance the flavors and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute pistachios with other nuts like almonds or walnuts if preferred.
- Ensure the coconut milk is well mixed before measuring, as it tends to separate.
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk.
- This cake can be served warm or chilled, depending on your preference.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
