You only need a handful of simple ingredients to make this cake. Here’s how to pick and swap them.

- Dojrzały Feijoa – This is the key ingredient, providing the unique, sweet, and tangy flavor of your cake. For the best natural sweetness, use very ripe feijoas. If yours aren’t perfectly soft and ripe, you might want to increase the sugar slightly. Feijoa is also known as pineapple guava in other parts of the world.
- Wiórki kokosowe – This adds a lovely texture and a subtle tropical flavor that pairs beautifully with feijoa. You can also use chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts, or even almond meal, as an alternative.
- Mleko kokosowe – This liquid contributes to the cake’s moistness and adds a wonderful richness. Canned coconut milk will give you a particularly lovely taste and texture, but almond milk also works.
- Oliwa z oliwek Light – This also adds moisture to the cake, keeping it tender. Vegetable oil, such as canola oil, is also a suitable alternative.
- Cukier trzcinowy nierafinowany – This sweetens the cake. You can use coconut sugar or demerara sugar, but these will make your cake darker. Regular white sugar, or a mix of white and brown sugar, also works perfectly. Adjust the amount based on how ripe your feijoas are.
- Ekstrakt waniliowy – This enhances the overall flavor of the cake, adding a warm note.
- Mąka samorosnąca – This forms the main structure of your cake and already contains baking powder, making it easy to use. If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can create your own by whisking all-purpose flour with baking powder (details in the recipe notes). For a gluten-free option, use my konwerter bezglutenowyale nie zapomnij o proszku do pieczenia.
- Cynamon – This spice adds a warm, comforting flavor that complements the feijoa beautifully.

Let me share a few more tips for a perfect feijoa cake.
- Feijoa Prep is Key – After scooping out the feijoa flesh, make sure to chop it very finely, almost to a mash. This ensures it blends well into the cake batter and provides a consistent texture.
- Regulacja słodkości – Use ripe feijoas for the best natural sweetness; if yours are very ripe, ⅔ cup of sugar should be enough. However, if your feijoas are a bit tough or less ripe, do not decrease the sugar; you might even want to increase it to 1 cup for optimal sweetness.
- Możliwość dostosowania tekstury – Feel free to swap the shredded coconut for other add-ins like almond meal, chopped walnuts, or pecans. If you prefer a plain feijoa cake, you can even skip these additions entirely.
- Feijoa Quality – The ripeness of your feijoas significantly impacts the sweetness and moisture of your cake. Ripe feijoas are soft to the touch and have a fragrant aroma.
- Pan Preparation – Line your cake tin with parchment paper and lightly oil both the paper and the tin. This ensures your cake won’t stick and is easy to remove once baked.
- Gentle Mixing – Once you add the flour and cinnamon, stir the batter gently with a rubber spatula until it’s just smooth and consistent. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, leading to a tougher cake.
