Рецепт Coconut Biscuit
I did not plan to bake a coconut biscuit recipe, but as I had a lot of coconut I felt that this was one to do. Long story short, I am very pleased with these coconut biscuits. They are a terrific alternative to the regular bread or pasta for dinner. My son enjoyed them with a little cheese. As a matter of fact he almost ate all the biscuits in a single sitting.
This biscuit has a crumbly texture because of the fresh shredded coconut. However, if you don’t have fresh coconut you can use dessicated coconut. It should not interfere with the texture or the taste. It is not too sweet, and therefore can go well with any of your favourite filling such as cheese paste, tuna, slices of cheese, even turkey. You can also have it without any filling due to its semi sweet satisfying taste.
This month have I shared with you a few recipes with coconut as its main ingredient. I still have a few more to share with you. So look out for them. They are all simple and just as creative and tasty. Onward to the coconut biscuit recipe.
