These delightful scones combine the tropical flavor of coconut with the sweetness of berries for a perfect treat.
Combine the flour, coconut, oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
Ensure the dry ingredients are evenly mixed for consistent flavor.
Cut the cold butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Use cold butter to achieve a flaky texture.
Beat the eggs and milk together in a small bowl.
Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution in the dough.
Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture, reserving a small amount for brushing, and mix until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the scones tender.
Shape the dough into a round on a floured surface and cut into wedges.
Flour your hands to prevent sticking.
Place the wedges on a baking sheet, brush with reserved egg mixture, and add a dollop of jam to each.
Leave space between wedges for even baking.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
Check for a golden color to ensure doneness.
Cool slightly before serving warm or transfer to a rack to cool completely.
Serve with additional jam or butter for extra indulgence.
