Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a round cake pan by greasing it lightly or lining with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and coconut milk, whisking until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Separate the egg whites from the yolks into a clean mixing bowl, add a pinch of salt, and beat on high speed until stiff peaks form.
- In another bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and shredded coconut until evenly mixed.
- Gently fold the dry mixture into the ricotta and coconut milk combination until just incorporated.
- Carefully add the whipped egg whites into the batter and fold gently using a spatula until no white streaks remain.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
Allow the cake to cool completely before serving. For toppings, consider toasted coconut flakes, coconut cream, or fresh berries.
