👨🍳 步驟

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with tahini or butter.

In a large bowl, combine semolina, sugar, shredded coconut, and baking powder. Mix well.
💡 專業提示: Ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed. - 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together yogurt, milk, melted butter, and optional rose/orange blossom water.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.

While the cake is baking, prepare the syrup: combine sugar and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened. Stir in lemon juice and optional floral water.

Let the cake cool completely (at least 1-2 hours) before cutting and serving.
