Sweet Cake Combination Of Grated Coconut, Banana, and Apple!
What if we had the option to not consume gluten flour? I think it's not always about being tortured because of thinking about the bad risks experienced worse if consuming gluten flour.
Indeed, currently I try as much as possible to avoid gluten cakes, also daily menus such as fritters. Instead I usually use rice flour, or cornstarch.
Actually it's a bit tricky to determine the mixture of cakes without gluten flour. Indeed, the fluffy and moist texture is difficult to get without gluten flour but the taste is not bad at all.
So, this time, I will make steamed gluten free flour cakes with some favorite fruits. Because in my new place I don't have an oven, so I only steam the cakes. The result is a bit moist but it tastes great and even the cake doesn't go stale for almost 3 days 😊
THE INGREDIENTS
- 250 grams of apples
- 2500 grams of ripe bananas
- 150 grams of mid young coconut flesh, grated
- 3 tablespoons of rice flour
- 50 ml of water
- 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoons of salt
- 50 grams of brown sugar
Cooking Instructions
I prepared the coconut first to be grated I grated it manually because I wanted to get the texture of shredded coconut.
Before I grated the coconut flesh, I first peeled the skin of the coconut flesh which is a bit hard so that later the grated coconut flesh will be good and will not interfere with the texture of the final cake.
Then I grated the coconut slowly. I was very careful when doing this job because my grater was very sharp for grating coconut.
After I finished grating the coconut meat, I also grated the apple. I peeled the apple skin first and didn't include it in the cake batter. Of course I will use the apple skins for compost in my garden.
But if you have a food processor you can crush the apple and coconut at once. So it will save energy.
In another bowl, I made mashed bananas. Then I added two eggs to the mashed banana.
Also, I added other ingredients, brown sugar, salt and water. I mixed them evenly.
I then added shredded coconut after the cake batter was mixed evenly beforehand.
I continued to add rice flour then I mixed it evenly again until there were no lumps of rice flour.
I entered the final stage of the cake batter, which was adding two tablespoons of vegetable oil. And then the cake dough is ready to be steamed.
I have prepared the steamer beforehand and I steamed the cake dough for 25 minutes.
THE RESUTLS
Remove the cake from the stem tool after steaming for 25 minutes. I did not cut the steamed cake immediately. I let the cake cool down and then carefully removed the cake from the container.
I am grateful that this cake that I made for the first time with a combination of several fruits actually worked well. And the pieces of cake can be removed from the steamer container nicely.
I do admit that the texture of this cake is a little wet. This is because this cake is not baked but steamed.
I think this is good because with simple tools and gluten free I can produce delicious cakes. Do you want to try this cake or have you ever made similar cakes?

Great 👍
Good afternoon, dear friend @anggreklestari
You're doing a great job avoiding gluten; your body will thank you for it.
I love this recipe and the ingredients you used.
Everything looks really delicious.
I appreciate you sharing the ingredients and how to prepare it.
Have a wonderful afternoon.
Yummy!
Yummmmmmy
is this a boiled cake? I'm glad I found this cake. I'll try to make it
I love fruit cakes; in fact, I am passionate about fruit and everything you can do with it. The combination of banana and apple is excellent, but I have never tried it with coconut. I think I have some unfinished business there. I also really like moist desserts, and I thought this was a great combination of ingredients.
I really liked the step-by-step instructions so I can make it myself. My family loves coconut and healthy foods, and we always enjoy trying new things. Thank you so much for the recipe, I loved it!

The more things you add, the better the test becomes, so all your recipes are much better and people try them at home.
Looks really delicious. I want to try this when I'm free time. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
delicious, healthy and easy to prepare, I already wanted to make one, thanks for this wonderful recipe.
I've never tasted this but it sure looks good. Thanks for sharing the DIY process with us.
It looks like an apple cookie. I'm sure it's delicious, chef. Some people are sensitive to gluten, so this would be a good option for them.
Very yummy looking cake! Can it be that you forgot to add the eggs to the ingredients?
That looks so delicious plus the presentation that really good😍
Wow new recipe.very healthy cake.I feel hungry hahaha 👌🤝 best of luck
I really want to try it, thanks for the recipe
Whoa! this looks very yummy and this recipe is very creative because you are using a coconut. I never tried eating this kind of cake. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Would like to serve my cakes on the leaves, too. What leaf is that? Thanks fot the answer in advance.
I like the ingredients as they are fresh and organic and I like coconut too. Banana and apple are usual combination like in fruit shakes. It's interesting to find out how it tastes like especially with coconut in this recipe. I think this one works well also for someone who follows low-carb diet.
Hi, @anggreklestari, this is a recipe I'll make a note of for when I'm in that state of culinary experimentation. The ingredients can be found here and since I don't have an oven, it's good for me to make it this way.
Greetings!
Waw 👏 will try this recipe 😋
Thanks for sharing
Dear lord, your family would be having a blast at home. Imagine waking up to different delicious meal every day. Ohhh dearrr
Yeah...it's indeed very difficult to stay away from gluten 😅, especially in baking area.
Otherwise it's probably not very torturing for Indonesian who mostly eat rice as carbs source in main dish instead of bread or pasta 😜.
For fritters fans it's becoming a little problem again, but you're right...cornstarch is a good helper, potato starch is also an option.
BTW...you can also try sweet potatoes and normal potatoes to make cakes.
There's even traditional indonesian cake aka "jajan pasar" which is typically made of potato flour: "Kue Lumpur".
It's very delicious and easy to make. You don't need an oven for that either 😊.
Oh you just reminded me of a big mistake I made.
I totally forgot to buy some cake molds when I was there 😬.
