2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
3 Tbs sugar
1 Tbs baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
4 Tbs coconut oil
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 egg
1/2 tsp coconut extract (optional)
milk for brushing
raw sugar for sprinkling
1/3 cup powdered sugar
juice of one passion fruit
Preheat the oven to 425ยบ. Line a baking sheet with either parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, shredded coconut, sugar, baking powder and salt. Whisk to combine. Add the coconut oil and either with a fork or your fingers, work the oil into the flour until the coconut oil is evenly distributed and the mixture resembles a "coarse crumble".
In a measuring cup measure the 1/2 cup of coconut milk, egg and add the extract if using. Whisk to combine.
Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir just until combined, being careful not to over mix.
Dump the mixture onto a flour dusted board and pat into a round. Cut the round into 8 triangles and place the individual triangles onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush with milk and sprinkle with raw sugar
Place into the oven and bake for 15-17 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
In the mean time prepare the passion fruit glaze. Measure 1/3 cup of powdered sugar into a small bowl. Cut the passion fruit in half and squeeze the fruit over a fine mesh sieve over the powdered sugar allowing the juice to fall over the sugar. Whisk until smooth, adding extra juice if too thick.
When the scones are cool, drizzle the glaze over the top and allow to set. Serve, and enjoy.
