👨🍳 Fremgangsmåde
- 1
Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 30cm x 20cm (12x8 inch) baking tray.
- 2
If using raisins soaked in rum, drain them. If not, ensure raisins are ready.
- 3
In a large bowl, combine the grated cassava, grated coconut, sugar, cinnamon, salt, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
- 4
In a separate small bowl, whisk the eggs lightly. Add the melted butter and coconut milk to the eggs and whisk to combine.
- 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter will be quite wet and runny.
- 6
Stir in the raisins (and rum, if using).
- 7
Pour the batter into the prepared baking tray and spread evenly.
- 8
Bake for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the top is golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- 9
Let the cake cool completely in the tray before cutting into squares and serving.
