– Easy-peasy recipe – I’m all for lazy baking days!
– Perfect for those moments when you need a dessert that looks fancier than your effort, if you catch my drift.

How to Make It

Alright, folks, let’s dive into this. You start by gathering your ingredients — trust your gut, you’ll need the usual suspects like lemon, coconut, and a bunch of other pantry pals. Heat up your oven, because, duh, we’re baking. As you mix everything, feel free to do a little kitchen jig. Did I mention this smell is what sunshine must smell like? Anyway, keep mixing, tossing in those capable hands of yours. Pour it out, slap it in the oven, and voilà, you’re practically a magician. Oh, and if you accidentally drop some on the counter, consider it a taste test!

Ingredient Notes

– Lemon: The zest is where the magic happens, don’t skimp on it unless you’re looking for a real party pooper.
– Coconut: You want that shredded kind, not the big flakes, okay? Trust me, my first attempt looked like a bad art project.
– Eggs: Make sure they’re the kind that hold up the whole shebang. Try not to think about the time I forgot they existed, oops.

Recipe Steps:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Find your mixing bowl and start adding ingredients like a mad scientist.
2. Zest those lemons till your fingers smell divine, trust me, you’ll love it.
3. Mix everything like your life depends on it, don’t hold back!
4. Pour the mixture into a greased baking pan. Admire your handiwork before it hits the oven.
5. Bake for about 30 minutes or until golden happiness stares back at you.
6. Let it cool (or not, choose your adventure). Slice and serve!

What to Serve It With

Grab an extra large scoop of vanilla ice cream if you’re feeling extra, or just a big smile — both work with this baby.

Tips & Mistakes

Go easy on the mixing — I’ve been known to overdo it and end up with sad, dense bliss.

Storage Tips

Keep this lovely in an airtight thingy—Tupperware, whatever you’ve got—at room temp for a couple of days, but truth be told, I doubt it’ll last that long. Oh, and if you nibble on a cold piece for breakfast, no judgments here.

Variations and Substitutions

Swap sugar for honey if you’re feeling honey-happy, or use coconut milk for that crazy coconut boost. And if life gives you limes instead of lemons, just roll with it. Life’s too short.

Frequently Asked Questions

I can’t have gluten… will this still work?

Totally. Just switch the soy sauce for tamari or coconut aminos. I’ve done it more times than I can count. Still tastes bomb.

Do I have to peel the pineapple first? Asking for a friend.

Yeah… definitely peel it. Unless you’re into chewing bark. It’s not fun, trust me.

Can I use canned pineapple instead of fresh?

Been there, done that. Just drain it like your life depends on it. Still good, just not *as* wow.

How sweet is this? Can I tone it down a bit?

You totally can. Cut the sugar a little or swap in honey or maple syrup. I’ve done both when I ran out of brown sugar.

What if I skip the sesame oil?

Honestly? It’s fine. You’ll lose that toasted vibe, but it’s not a dealbreaker. Still delicious.
