Coconut "Ravani"

Ok, a difficult day for me (2 of may) has passed and life gets it's rhythm again. So, what's best than trying my favorite Greek cake? Coconut "Ravani" or Coconut semolina moist cake :)
Do you remember the recipe for ravani? If not, time to revise it ...
Find today a slightly different version that is one of my favorite Greek cakes with flaked coconut.

Galatopita (Milk pie)

"Galatopita" is the greek name for this pie that can be translated literally to "milk pie" and which is actually a cream pie.
If you have kids at home they will love it! Keep some of the cream and serve it to small bowls with cinnamon on top and you will drive them crazy :)))

and they will be more patient for the final result... the full pie!

Ravani is a moist, fragrant Greek cake made with semolina and soaked in a sweet syrup. It’s a classic dessert that’s perfect for any occasion. With a hint of lemon and a delicate texture, this cake is a beloved treat in Greek households (in ours too!).

An amazing variation is the coconut ravani.
