I came upon this recipe over at www.chefintraining.com and I am so glad to have found it! I made these for Father’s Day and we all just loved them, ALTHOUGH the fathers said it needed to be served with ice cream! These are very sweet but the strawberry and coconut really shine through! Go ahead and make these… but please remember the ice cream!
INGREDIENTS
1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup of unsalted butter (softened)
1 large egg
1/2 cup strawberry jam
For the crumble
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes
2 Tablespoons all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
4 Tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray an 8×8 inch baking pan with non stick cooking spray. In a medium bowl whisk together flour, sugar and baking powder. Using a rubber spatula add large egg, mix to combine. Add softened butter and mix until dough forms. Press into prepared pan, place in oven and bake for 15 minutes. Spread strawberry jam over the warm crust.
Next, combine brown sugar, coconut flakes, flour and baking powder. Pour melted butter over the dry ingredients and stir to combine. drop mixture evenly over the jam layer and return to the oven for 18-20 minutes or until top layer is golden brown. remove from oven and let cool for at least 30 minutes!
