How to cook deliciously - Easy Lemon-Coconut Cake with Raspberry Sauce

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan.

Zest 2 lemons into a small bowl. Juice 1 of the lemons into another small bowl. Reserve remaining lemon for another use.

3. Stage

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

4. Stage

Whisk sugar and eggs together in another bowl until they form a ribbon. Stir olive oil, milk, lemon zest, and 1/2 of the lemon juice into the sugar-egg mixture until thoroughly combined. Fold in dry ingredients and coconut, then pour into the prepared pan.
