Blueberry Choco chip and Coconut Cake




Our family loves cake as afternoon snack and lunch box treat. The daughter does not like blueberries, she eats them only if they are in a dessert or in cake. We have also been watching Is it Cake? on Netflix these days so this snack fits in perfectly for this work week. 

Ingredients:
- Self Raising Flour - 1 cup
- Oil (Veg/Canola/Olive) I used vegetable oil, but its up to your choice and pantry - 1/2 cup
- Sugar - 1/2 cup
- Vanilla Essence - 1 tsp
- Chocolate chips - 2 tbsp 
- Coconut flakes - 4 tbsp and extra for sprinkling on top
- Eggs - 2
- Milk - 3 tsp
- Fresh Blueberries- 100gm

Method:
- Preheat oven to 160 degrees Celsius.
- Line a cake tin with butter paper and keep it ready.
- Crack 2 eggs in a big mixing bowl.
- Add sugar and beat with a spoon until there are no granules and sugar is mixed well with the eggs.
- Add oil and mix well until everything is mixed and forms a batter.
- To this add half the flour and fold it in.
- Add the next half and fold it in too.  
- Add in and mix vanilla essence and milk at this time to get the right consistency.
- Mix in coconut flakes, blueberries and chocolate chips. Keep some aside to sprinkle on top
- Pour this mixture into the cake tin evenly. Sprinkle the extras from top, the ones we kept aside in the previous step.
- Once the oven is preheated, put the cake on the middle rack and bake for 30 min.
- Do the toothpick test, if not completely baked, bake for another 5 mins. Baking time will vary based on the strength and design of your oven.
- Once baked, take out of the oven and let it cool.
- Cut and serve.
