Coconut Shortcakes With Grilled Pineapple
- COCONUT SHORTCAKES
- 2.2 ounces (1/2 cup) all purpose flour
- 1.1 ounces (1/4 cup) coconut flour
- 1/2 cup finely shredded coconut (for baking)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, room temp
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup whipping cream
- 1 tsp raw turbinado sugar
- GRILLED PINEAPPLE
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 pineapple slices
- LIME WHIPPED CREAM
- 1/3 cup whipping cream
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- zest of one lime
- Preheat the oven to 325 F. Butter four 5 1/2" tart molds.
- Combine the flours, coconut, baking powder, and salt and thoroughly mix.
- Cream together the butter and sugar, mixing on medium-high for about 3 minutes. Add the egg and beat another 2 minutes.
- Add the flour mixture, alternating with the cream, in thirds to the bowl. It will be very thick. Spoon the dough into the tart molds. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
- Bake at 325 F for 15 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Melt the butter and mix with the honey. Baste the pineapple slices with the honey-butter and grill on high heat, 2 minutes per side.
- Whip the whipping cream using a mixer until soft peaks form. Add the sugar and lime and continue to whip on high for 30 seconds, I like mine with medium stiff peaks - just be careful not to over whip!
- Slice each coconut shortcake in half to form a 2-layer shortcake. Place the grilled pineapple in the middle and top with whipped cream.
