Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Coconut Sponge Cakes
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8-inch round baking pan by greasing it and lining the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups of flour, 1 cup of sugar, and 2 teaspoons of baking powder until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 large room-temperature eggs and ½ cup of milk until frothy and well blended.
  4. Gently pour the egg mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring slowly until just combined.
  5. Carefully fold in 1 cup of chopped strawberries and ½ cup of shredded coconut.
  6. Pour the prepared batter into the greased pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cakes to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
