Coconut Lime Greek Yogurt Scones

• FOR THE SCONES:
• 2 cups Flour
• 3 Tablespoons Sugar
• 1/2 cups Shredded Coconut
• 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 teaspoons Salt
• 5 Tablespoons Cold Butter, Cut Into Cubes
• 1 cup Greek Yogurt (I Used Chobani Low-fat Plain)
• 1 whole Egg Yolk
• 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoons Coconut Extract
• 1 whole Lime, Zested
• 2 Tablespoons Heavy Cream
• FOR THE GLAZE/TOPPING:
• 2 Tablespoons Greek Yogurt
• 1 whole Lime, Juiced
• 1 drop Green Food Coloring Gel (optional)
• 2-1/2 cups Powdered Sugar, Or Enough To Make A Thick, Runny Glaze
• 2 Tablespoons Toasted Coconut

1. For the scones:
2. Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, coconut, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender until the mixture is crumbly.
4. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the yogurt, egg yolk, vanilla, coconut extract, and lime zest. Add the yogurt mixture into the flour/butter mixture and gently fold it in, forming a shaggy dough.
5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Gently pat the dough together until it holds its shape and can be formed into a 3/4 inch-thick disc, being careful not to overwork the dough or knead it too much. Cut the disc into 8 equal-sized triangles. Place each triangle on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the top of each triangle with heavy cream.
6. Bake 14-16 minutes or until golden on the edges and cooked through. Remove pan from oven and set aside to cool on a baking rack while you make the glaze.
7. For the glaze:
8. In a medium sized bowl whisk together the Greek yogurt, lime juice, and green food coloring, if using. Gradually add powdered sugar, whisking briskly until smooth and you have a thick, but runny glaze. Drizzle the glaze over warm scones, then immediately sprinkle scones with toasted coconut. Allow the glaze to set before serving.
9. Notes:
10. I toast my coconut in a small frying pan over medium heat, stirring often until golden.
