• 3 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

• ¾ cup dried shredded coconut - optional
• 4 eggs
• 1 ½ cups honey
• 1 ½ cups warm liquid coconut oil
• 1 ¼ teaspoons vanilla
• 1 8 ounce can crushed pineapple, un-drained

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine all dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Add all remaining ingredients and stir until well combined. Pour into un-greased 9x13 inch baking pan and bake for 50 minutes or until tester inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Cool.

Optional Icings:

Cream everything together until well blended and thicken with a few tablespoons of coconut flour.
