How To Make coconut carrot cake

Step 1Preheat the oven to 350 degrees [F]. Grease and flour a 12-cup tube pan. Sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, oil, and beaten eggs and mix well. Add the dry ingredients and mix just until blended. Add the vanilla extract. Fold in nuts, coconut, and carrots. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour, or until a cake tester inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake in the pan.
