    Recipe Introduction


    These are great if you like coconut.They are more popular in summer than in winter.

    List of Ingredients




    1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
    1/2 cup rolled oats
    3 tablespoons granulated sugar, divided
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/3 cup cold butter, cut into chunks
    2 large eggs
    1/4 cup raspberry or cherry jam

    Recipe



    In a large bowl, mix flour, coconut, oats, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. With your fingers or a pastry blender, rub or cut in butter until mixture forms coarse crumbs.

    In a small bowl, beat eggs and milk to blend. Stir all but about 1 tablespoon egg mixture into flour mixture just until evenly moistened.

    Scrape dough onto a lightly floured board and pat into an 8-inch round. Slide round onto a buttered 12 x 15 inch jellyroll pan and cut into 8 wedges, leaving wedges in place. Brush top of round with reserved egg mixture and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Make a 1-inch diameter depression on top of the wide end of each wedge and fill each with about ½ tablespoon jam.

    Bake at 375 degrees F. until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Re-cut scones to separate and serve warm, or transfer to a rack to cool completely. Makes 8 scones.
