Zesty orange coconut cake – gluten and sugar free
This is a variation of the previous post of Foolproof paleo coconut cake with Stevia & Easy coconut rum cup cakes with Stevia, for this version I used orange juice.
This cake is great for anyone who is a big fan of coconut, it has a real holiday type taste to it with it's zestiness.
You can also do it withe lemon juice but you want to mix it with water to avoid it being too zesty.
