HOW TO MAKE COCONUT TART!!

I remembered making those lovely coconut tarts on a weekend. I must say thanks for Home Economics at the Junior Secondary Level. This tasty treat not only satisfies the craving of coconut lovers, but brings local and foreign culinary art form to the table.

Ingredients for dough prep:

3 cups all purpose flour
4 ozs unsalted butter
cold water for mixing
1/8 tsp salt

Tart filling:
1 grated coconut
1 dash of vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon spice
1/2 tsp ground ginger (fresh grated ginger can be used)
1/8 tsp grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cup brown sugar

Tips:
1. Excessive water causes too much gluten to develop
2. The dough should be wrapped in foil, or cling wrap to prevent drying out

Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 mins, remove and brush the tarts with glaze mixture then return to the oven until golden brown
glaze mixture:
1/4 cup water
2 tbsp brown sugar
drop of vanilla essence

Andrea, you are a BOSS in teaching how to make coconut tart. That is the real thing. I am from Grenada and I remember the lady in the village who supplied us with coconut tarts. Well demonstrated. Hood luck in your venture.

Very nice, we call this a coconut crust... We have a coconut tart, that’s cooked with a younger or white coconut, with condensed milk, eggs and flavorings, the dough is a bit richer as well, always a stable at a party or wedding... So good to see the same food with just a touch of variations from the diaspora, one people! 👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼💕

Thank you very much. Tried your recipe and it was a hit. My friend does not like coconut pastries but she said this was an exception and I can make it for her anytime.
Thanks again

I see you get nutmeg from Grenada. You need to get the authentic essence from there too - Moses Essence (since 1965). Enjoyed your show!
