I love strawberries, and coconut, so this sounds especially good to me. Found in an old issue of Woman's Day magazine. I haven't tried yet but plan to soon. Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1 tablespoon grated fresh lemon rind |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup heavy cream |
2 large eggs |
12 ounces strawberries, diced |
2 tablespoons sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Grease a large baking sheet.
3. Mix first 6 ingredients in a large bowl.
4. In a small bowl blend cream and eggs together, then pour over flour mixture, add strawberries, and stir just until mixed and dough clumps together.
5. Scrape dough onto center of prepared baking sheet and pat into a 9-inch round (dough will be very sticky).
6. Sprinkle dough with 2 tbs of sugar.
7. Grease a long knife and cut round of dough into 8 wedges, but don't separate wedges.
8. Bake 30-35 minutes until puffed and well browned and a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
9. Recut wedges.
