really easy! I don’t know how the topping looks so neat in the photo, mine looks more like a crumble but delicious anyhow
Any tips how to get the top to look more perfect?
Yes, it is! We’re so glad you’re enjoying the recipe. Food photography is definitely an art! You can try crumbling your crumbs into smaller pieces and layering them more evenly, but honestly, I’m not sure there’s much else to do- sometimes imperfection adds to the charm 🙂
We love this cake! I bake it in 2 loaf pans and pour half the batter, then some of the coconut topping, then the rest of the batter and the rest of the coconut topping on top. yummy!
really delicious cake and so easy to make
