Lamington Australian Coconut Cake (#1 Recipe)

October 26, 2020 by cookies

This cake is from my happy, safe and free childhood. Lamington Australian Coconut Cake or #1 Recipe for my whole life. Yes, this post is so emotional to me. So much memory and so much love for this cake that I can’t express…but I am sure you can feel it. Love is in the air…from Australia or New Zealand.

Lamingtons Cake — lamingtons Australian Coconut cake-the best cake

If there is one cake that is number #1 inside of my chocolate soul, it is this one.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen I like you to meet and say hello to the best coconut cake called …

Lamington cake

(don’t mind me. I treat cake as a human being…so saying hello is just normal communication in my life…)

Let me start with this … As a kid I was not able to say Lamington cake so I always called this cake coconut. My mum’s friends used to bring me this cake all the time. And they used to joke that I need to move to Australia or to be shipped there. So, yes since a very young age I knew two things about this cake:

It is from Australia and it has the name that I can’t say. Why is love so complicated? (my little soul was wondering)

Now, many years after and many cakes after I still think LAMINGTON IS THE ONE. My cake and my soul. But how about you my dear readers? How much do you know about this best cake from Australia? So, let me give you a quick introduction to this amazing chocolate coconut cake.

Lamington Australian Coconut cake-easy cake

DESCRIPTION OF LAMINGTON CAKE

It is the sponge cake coated in chocolate and rolled in desiccated coconut. The cake is moist, delicate and utterly delicious. So delicious that in Australia, July 21st is designated as National Lamington Day in which charity groups sell Lamingtons to raise money. (how amazing is that?)

The cake is served with tea in Australia or with coffee in Europe. This cake is also great gift for Christmas.

Also, some people use raspberry jam or plum jam as the filling for the cake. What do you think? Would you like to try it? Personally, I loved it but my favorite is still just plain Lamington cake with chocolate and coconut.

Question for YOU? Do you know what the word lamington means? The word lamington means layers of beaten gold. How poetic is that…layers of beaten gold. And you are eating that. You rich son of … cake. So, let’s make this golden cake or layers of beaten gold now.

Yes, this pie is homemade heaven. It starts with an unbaked pie shell. You know who has the best recipe for pie shell. 5 star cookies – Make 6 pies from one recipe or if you are on diet and you want only 3 CHECK THIS LINK!

Also, if you don’t like to make homemade pie crust you can use store-bought version. It is up to you but our recipe for pie crust is super easy to make. (and so cheap)

In case you are wondering why somebody would use oatmeal in pies I am going to answer to you. And in order to do that I have to go back, way back into 1800. (Hello 1800… I am so happy to escape 2020). BTW, not really. It was bad year too…but I have to give you an answer. (see below)

During the civil war pecans were so expensive and not easy to find. So what was the solution?…Oatmeal, yes people use oatmeal in order to create tasty desserts. And because of that we have the best Amish Oatmeal Pie which kind of taste like pecan pie. (kind of..)

Also, I have to admin I like Amish Pie way more than Pecan Pie…unless is boozy Pecan Pie.

Now, since you know so much about this 5 star Amish recipe we can move to the kitchen and make it happen. YES, we are ready for our baking show.

Like always our first step is getting ingredients or I like to call it…

Oven Baked Bananas – Place your bananas on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 250 F.

Paper Bag (12 to 24 hours) – Place bananas in a brown paper bag and close loosely. Bananas emit ethylene which creates ripening.

Microwave Method – take a fork and poke through the skin of the peel (on all sides). Place poked bananas in the microwave for 30 seconds. Cool it and check for softness. If you are not satisfy keep going. Place bananas into the microwave for another 30 seconds. Continue until desired ripeness.

HOW TO ROLL OUT PIE CRUST for MINI PIES or Butter Tart Shells

This is very important: Your first step is to take out your pre-made frozen dough the night before.

When you are ready to roll out your dough, use generous amount of flour on your surface and rolling pin. (this is important step since this dough loves the flour)

Place the dough on floured surface. Cover the dough with more flour.

Using your rolling pin, gently roll it from the center out, turning the dough with your hands as you go.

Roll the pie crust out to 1/8″ thickness.

This doesn’t need to be perfect. You are making mini pies or butter tarts shells.

Then use cookie cutter, large, round size. I used 3 and 1/2 inch or 9 cm.

Cut out 12 circles from the pie crust. Re-roll any scrap pieces of pie.

Place each pie circle into the cavity of a standard 12-count muffin pan.

Please, be sure to gently press the pie dough down and around the sides.

Transfer the muffin pan into the freezer for about 2 hours.

Remove from freezer, cover with plastic wrap then aluminum foil and return to the freezer. (until ready to use)

And you just made mini pie crust or butter tart shells for your future recipe.
