Tropical Traditions - Recipe - Coconut Baking Powder Biscuits

Coconut Baking Powder Biscuits

2 cups organic flour*
3 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons coconut oil, solid
¾ cup coconut milk (see below) or regular milk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

In a medium bowl mix flour, baking powder, and salt together. Cut in coconut oil and blend w/fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

With a fork, toss flour mixture while adding milk. Mix until a dough forms. Add more milk if needed. On a lightly floured surface, pat dough out until about ½ inch thick. Cut with floured biscuit cutter and place on ungreased baking sheets.

Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. Delicious!

For coconut milk mix approximately 2 teaspoons coconut cream concentrate with ¾ cup water or make homemade coconut milk.

*For best results use 100% all purpose flour or half and half with whole wheat flour.

Did you use regular milk or the "coconut cream" milk? Or did you try both? If so, which did you prefer?

I used coconut cream milk. I also tried a variation where I added cinnamon into the mix (about a 2 teaspoons). It was great with honey on it. I also used a fine grinded whole wheat flour.

Does spelt flour give the same results?
