With summer ending soon, this week has become clean out the shore-house kitchen week. After just a few minutes of taking inventory and contemplating recipe ideas, I ended up baking this delicious treat.
Blueberry Walnut Coconut Cake
It seems as though 99% of my baking experiments are with coconut flour, huh? What can I say…I love the stuff! 
This recipe is adapted from Mark’s Coconut Bread recipe. It turned out perfectly moist and not too sweet.
Warning: with 6 eggs (yes, six) and one stick of butter, this isn’t exactly an herbivore-friendly dessert. But if you’re a fat-lover like me, you’re in luck!
ingredients:
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 6 eggs
- 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 packets of stevia
- 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup blueberries
directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8×8 cake pan.
- Combine the first three (dry) ingredients in a small bowl.
- Whisk together eggs, butter, vanilla, and stevia.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and combine.
- Add walnuts and blueberries. Pour mixture into cake pan.
- Bake for 40 minutes. Allow to cool before slicing into 12-16 pieces.
I cut the cake into 16 small pieces as it’s quite rich.
For a midmorning snack I crumbled a piece of the cake over plain Greek yogurt with a drizzle of almond butter. To die.

And, since I’m pretty sure I won’t eat the whole cake over the next few days, I froze about a third of the slices.
Operation clean out the kitchen = success 
So far, at least. Next task: dinner!
- Is there an ingredient you find yourself always using?
- What is your strategy for cleaning out the kitchen?
sold…i want like 12 pieces of this STAT!
Looks phenomenal! I love fresh pastry with greek yogurt, so unebelievably good.
Does coconut flour actually taste like coconut?…I’ve never tried it and I have absolutely no idea what it would be like…
That sounds fantastic!
That looks so so good! My strategy for cleaning out the kitchen is to go for weeks and weeks without going grocery shopping. It kind of forces you to use what you’ve got.
I have never tried coconut flour- but this cake makes me want to buy some just to make it!!
Looks delish! I would blueberry anything
It *kind* of does, but it’s not a super strong flavor. It also depends on whether you sweeten it or not. The flavor is kind of hard to explain, so I suggest you try it!
I’ve never tried coconut flour, but I might have to now. That looks delish!
This looks TASTY, even though eggs kind of gross me out :/ My best strategy is to freeze everything you can, then just take it to your next location!! It’s saved me a ton of food
Hope you’ve had a great start to your week love!!
oh my gosh i bet that was so good over yogurt…!
Oh no you didn’t!
That looks so good!
Mmm these look amazing. I’ve never tried coconut flour but I’m really curious to try it since I LOVE anything coconut.
I’ve never tried coconut flour, after looking at this cake I’m going to give it a try!! Thanks for sharing!
I need to start cleaning out the kitchen. For me, it mainly just eating a variety of foods instead of one. Sometimes I just get so hooked on almond butter and I wont eat anything else.
