DIY: How To Bake Coconut Biscuits

Hey Guys!

I did some cooking today well its more baking and i made some Butter Coconut Crisps and I thought I would share it with you. It's really simple and you don't need that many ingredients :) *warning* once these are cooled they go really hard so don't eat if u have weak teeth as you may end up losing a few, if u really want to eat these I suggest dunking them into a hot beverage to soften them and save your toothy pegs :)


Butter Coconut Crisps (makes about 30)



Ingredients You Will Need: 

• -175g/6oz - Self-raising flour, sifted.
• - 225g/8oz, White Sugar
• - 1 Egg, Beaten
• - 125g/ 4oz, Butter, melted
• - 150g/ 5oz, Desiccated Coconut
• - Coco Powder (Optional) 

*Preheat oven to 180'C/350'F/Gas Mark 4*

1. Mix the flour and sugar together.



2. Gradually beat in the egg.

3. Gradually fold in the melted butter.


4. If the mixture is too sticky (like the picture below) add more sifted flour

Tip: Keep adding flour till it has a doughy consistence.

Note: If you want to use coco powder now would be the time to add it, just gently fold it into the dough, best to do this with your hands.

5. Form into small balls and roll in the coconut.
Tip: I usually put the coconut and water in separate bowls as I find the dough can be a bit dry so the coconut doesn't stick very well, try dipping your fingertips into some water and gently dab over the ball.

6. Place on well greased baking trays or use baking sheets and place them spaced apart as they flatten during cooking.

7. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly brown or firm to touch.


8. Once cooked leave them to cool

10. Now the fun part eating them, enjoy :)

I hope you enjoyed this recipe, tweet or Instagram me your pictures :)
