About the bake
We've put a delicious twist on the traditional English scone by pairing up juicy raspberries and coconut. A yummy addition to any afternoon tea party. These fresh tasting scones go really well served with a passion fruit curd.
Method
Step 1:
Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan, Gas Mark 6) Grease and lightly flour a baking tray.
Step 2:
Mix together the flour and butter until it resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in the coconut and the sugar, before folding in the raspberries.
Step 3:
Mix 3 tablespoons of yoghurt, the egg and coconut flavouring together. Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture and then add the wet ingredients.
Step 4:
Blend together until it reaches a soft dough. Bring this together with your hands. If the mixture feels dry add an additional tablespoon of yoghurt.
Step 5:
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll out until it reaches a 3cm thickness. Using a circular cutter stamp out circles of dough and place them on your prepared baking sheet.
Step 6:
Glaze the top of the scones with milk (this is optional) and sprinkle with some more coconut. Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes.
