Eggless Pineapple Coconut Kefir Cake

*A delightful eggless pineapple coconut kefir cake recipe.

When you are sitting in your vegetarian kitchen wondering what to bake as a special eggless dessert for that all important event coming up: the wedding, the shower, the 25th anniversary, the graduation or whatever, wonder no longer -- this is the eggless cake to bake.

A real crowd pleaser, this eggless pineapple coconut kefir cake was originally designed for an engagement party of a mere 1200 people, though you will find it scaled down to family size here. Having discovered a sure fire, work every time, solution to eggless baking with the eggless chocolate raspberry kefir cake, I was drawn to the delights of the tropics for this event.

What does that mean? Why, pineapple coconut of course! This cake is so light and fluffy it almost floats off of the plate. It is simply superb. I use a thick pineapple filling and a coconut whipped cream frosting. Oh My!  Enjoy!

Note on Kefir Cake Recipes:

Add the ½ tsp. Xanthan Gum* (optional) to each of the Kefir recipes.

*Xanthan gum is used in gluten-free baking. Since the gluten found in wheat must be omitted, xanthan gum is used to give the dough or batter a "stickiness" that would otherwise be achieved with the gluten.

Xanthan gum also helps thicken commercial egg substitutes, to replace the fat and emulsifiers found in yolks. Since it does not change the color or flavor of foods or beverages, it is a preferred method of binding cake batters when used along with Ener-G Egg Replacer or OrgraN No Egg.
