Imagine a cozy afternoon at home with the aroma of freshly baked treats filling the air. The gentle sound of crackling in the oven and the promise of something sweet to enjoy with a cup of tea. Let’s try our hands at creating a delightful pastry that will transport you to a tropical paradise: Coconoil.
Ingredients:
– 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp of baking powder
– 1 cup of shredded coconut
– 1 cup of sugar
– 1 egg
– ½ cup of butter, melted
– ½ cup of coconut milk
– 1 tsp of vanilla extract
– Pinch of salt
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a baking pan with a little butter or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Stir in the shredded coconut and sugar until well mixed.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, melted butter, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
4. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently until everything is combined. Be careful not to overmix, as you want a light and fluffy batter.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a smooth top.
6. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Once baked, remove the Coconoil from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Slice the Coconoil into squares or rectangles, depending on your preference, and serve them on a pretty plate to enjoy with your favorite hot beverage or as a delightful dessert.
Coconoil is the perfect treat to brighten any day, whether you want to impress guests at a gathering or simply spoil yourself with a delicious homemade snack. The delicate coconut flavor paired with a moist, buttery texture makes this pastry a crowd-pleaser that will have everyone coming back for seconds. So roll up your sleeves, preheat the oven, and let the sweet scent of Coconoil fill your home with warmth and comfort.
