Coconutalmondscones Recipes

Steps:

• Make the scones: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar and shredded coconut in a bowl. Beat in the butter with a mixer on low speed, then raise the speed to high and beat until the mixture is in coarse crumbles.
• Whisk the coconut milk, eggs and coconut extract in another bowl, then stir into theflour mixture until just combined. Stir in the pecans; do not overmix.
• Scoop 2-to-3-inch mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets (a large ice cream scoop works well for this). Sprinkle the tops with sugar and bake until golden brown, 15 to 17 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the coconut milk, coconut and vanilla extracts and 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar in a bowl until smooth, adding more sugar as needed to thicken. Drizzle over the scones while still slightly warm.

Steps:

• 1. Line a 9-by-13-inch pan with foil and coat it with nonstick cooking spray.
• 2. Combine condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt in a bowl.
• 3. Add confectioners' sugar 1 cup at a time and stir with a wooden spoon until fully incorporated.
• 4. Add coconut and stir until combined.
• 5. Pour the mixture into the baking pan and press it into an even layer. Then press the almonds into the mixture in even rows. Chill candy in refrigerator until firm, about 1 hour.
• 6. Using a sharp chef's knife, cut the candy into small rectangles.
• 7. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
• 8. Melt and temper the chocolate, or simply melt the coating chocolate.
• 9. Dip the bars into the chocolate, covering completely, and place them on the prepared sheet.
• 10. Refrigerate candy for 30 minutes or until the chocolate has set.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix flour, coconut and baking soda; set aside. Beat butter and shortening in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well mixed. Add sugar; beat until light and fluffy. Add egg, honey and almond extract; beat until well blended. Gradually add flour mixture, beating on low speed after each addition until well blended.
• Shape level tablespoonfuls of dough into balls. Place, 2 inches apart, on ungreased baking sheets. Flatten each ball with bottom of drinking glass; press almond slice into center of each cookie.
• Bake 9 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes; remove from baking sheets. Cool completely on wire racks. Store in tightly covered container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 450°F Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat.
• In a food processor pulse together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add in the butter and pulse a few times until the mixture is crumbly. Add the shredded coconut and pulse 2-3 times, just to mix.
• Pour into a large bowl and add the coconut milk; using a spoon mix together until the dry ingredients are incorporated.
• Press into a 9-inch circle and cut into eighths. Place on baking sheet and bake 12-15 minutes or until the bottoms are just slightly browned. Serve hot with a simple glaze of powdered sugar and milk, with a pat of butter, or just plain!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F, spray two baking sheets with cooking spray.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• Cut in butter, add coconut and lemon zest.
• Mix eggs and milk, add to the flour mixture, but don't over mix.
• Use a scoop to divide the scones, then sprinkle with the almonds.
• Bake for 17 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silpats.
• In a large bowl, sift the flour with the sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the lemon rind. Using two knives or a food processor, cut the butter into the flour mixture until the butter is evenly incorporated and there are no large chunks. Grate the almond paste and mix it into the flour mixture with ½ cup of the flaked coconut.
• In a medium bowl, beat the coconut milk, egg and almond extract until well combined. Add the dry ingredients and beat with a spoon until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and forms a ball. Knead 5 or 6 turns to get a nice consistency. The dough should be firm enough to roll out but still delicate, not stiff or dry.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 3/4 inch thickness. Either cut into triangles with a baking wedge or use a cookie cutter to cut shapes. Place on cookie sheets about 2 inches apart. Brush with the egg wash and sprinkle with the remaining ½ cup of coconut.
• Bake for 18 minutes, or until they are a light golden brown and spring back to the touch.
• Makes about 22 scones.

Steps:

• Bring water and coconut milk to a boil. In a mixing bowl, place couscous, butter and salt and pepper, pour the boiling liquid over and mix well, let sit for 10 minutes. Stir in chopped cilantro or parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Prepare baking sheet by spraying lightly with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, combine the the flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• Cut in the margarine until the mixture resembles course meal.
• Add the apricots and almonds into the flour mixture and mix thoroughly.
• In a smaller bowl, mix together the yogurt, sour cream, and extracts.
• Cut and fold the yogurt/sour cream mixture into the flour until you can collect the dough. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface just until it can be shaped. If the dough is too sticky add a little more flour but take care not to add too much as it toughens up the scones. Similarly, over kneading the dough also diminishes the final result.
• Place the dough ball on the baking sheet and spread out into an 8 or 10 inch disk.
• Lightly brush the milk on the top and sprinkle with the remaining 2 teaspoons of sugar.
• Using a very long knife (bread knives work well) cut half way through the dough. You are making indentations, not actually portioning the scone. Repeat until the scone has been divided into 8 wedges. (You can also cut into 12 pieces if you want smaller pieces).
• Bake the scones 20 - 22 minutes.
• Best served warm but cold is good too.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, mix flour, 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Grate butter into flour mixture on the large holes of a box grater; use your fingers to work in butter (mixture should resemble coarse meal), then stir in raisins.
• In a small bowl, whisk sour cream, almond extract and egg until smooth.
• Using a fork, stir sour cream mixture into flour mixture until large dough clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the bowl into a ball. (The dough will be sticky in places, and there may not seem to be enough liquid at first, but as you press, the dough will come together.)
• Place on a lightly floured surface and pat into a 7- to 8-inch circle about 3/4-inch thick. Sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoons of sugar. Use a sharp knife to cut into 8 triangles; place on a cookie sheet (preferably lined with parchment paper), about 1 inch apart. Bake until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 180 fan and line a tray with baking paper.
• Add the flour, almonds, salt and butter into a bowl and rub until it resembles breadcrumbs.
• Mix in the sugar. Pour in almost all the milk and all the almond extract until you have a dough.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and cut into 12 using a cookie cutter.
• Put the scones on the tray and glaze with left over milk and cook for 10-15 minutes.
• Serve with a cup of tea!
