¼ cup tapioca starch
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp fine sea salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
4 large eggs, room temperature
½ cup maple syrup
⅓ cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
¼ cup full-fat coconut milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp apple cider vinegar

For the frosting

2 cans (13.5 oz each) full-fat coconut milk, refrigerated overnight
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1
The night before baking, place 2 cans of full-fat coconut milk in the refrigerator upright — the cream will separate and solidify at the top, which is needed for the frosting.
2
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 8-inch round cake pans with coconut oil, line the bottoms with parchment paper rounds, and grease the parchment.
