Step 1: Preheat your oven to 325°F. Low and slow is what’s gonna give us that perfect, moist texture. Step 2: Grab two 9-inch cake pans, grease them up real good, and then drop a round of parchment paper on the bottom.👉 This is your insurance policy—no sticking, no heartbreak later. Step 3: In a big bowl, add your butter and sweetener and beat it until it’s nice and smooth.We’re building that rich base right here. Step 4: Build the Batter: Eggs Almond flour + coconut flour Salt, cinnamon, cloves or allspice Baking powder + xanthan gum Vanilla + banana extract Almond milk Mix it for about 2–3 minutes until it’s silky smooth.👉 You’ll start smelling those warm spices already… that’s the magic kicking in. Step 5: Now fold in: Chopped pineapple ½ cup shredded coconut ½ cup chopped pecans This is where that hummingbird flavor really comes alive. Step 6: Split that thick batter evenly between your two pans.Use a spatula to smooth it out—don’t rush it. Step 7: Pop them in for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.👉 Your kitchen should smell unreal right about now. Step 8: Let the cakes cool on a rack for about 30 minutes.Don’t rush this—we want them stable before frosting. Step 9: While that’s cooling, spread 1 cup shredded coconut on a baking sheet.Toast it for 3–5 minutes until golden.👉 Keep an eye on it—it goes from perfect to burnt FAST. Step 10: Run a knife around the edge, flip that first cake out onto your plate or stand. Step 11: Frost the Middle Add about ⅓ of your cream cheese frosting right in the center.Use a warm knife to spread it out nice and even. Step 12: Place the second cake upside down on top.👉 This gives you that clean, bakery-style finish. Step 13: Now go in and frost the top and sides.Take your time—this is where it starts looking like a showstopper. Step 14: Press that toasted coconut into the sides with your hands.Yeah, it’s a little messy—but totally worth it. Step 15: Top with pecan halves for extra visual pop. 💬 Kenny’s Tip: Make sure cakes are completely cooked, this is a thick batter. If you know you know!
