Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1.75 cups granulated sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
• 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 tablespoon lime zest
• 1.5 cups powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 2 tablespoons additional coconut milk (for glaze)
• 0.5 cups toasted coconut flakes (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease and flour a bundt pan, ensuring all crevices are well-coated to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs to the butter-sugar mixture one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

On low speed, alternate adding the dry ingredients and coconut milk to the wet mixture, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined.

Step 6

Fold in the crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, and lime zest with a spatula, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula to ensure even baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the bundt cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lime juice, and 2 tablespoons of coconut milk until smooth and pourable.

Step 11

Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top, letting it cascade down the sides of the bundt cake.

Step 12

Sprinkle the top with toasted coconut flakes for an added island-inspired touch.

Step 13

Slice, serve, and enjoy your Heavenly Island Bundt Cake!
