Unlike more traditional scones, coconut scones are made with coconut milk and coconut flakes instead of sour milk or kefir, infusing each bite with a divine flavor. This dough doesn't require kneading or shaping; all ingredients are mixed with a mixer or spatula and then spooned onto baking sheets to create amazingly soft, slightly flaky scones with a crisp, golden crust. After baking, drizzle them with a glaze made from coconut milk, powdered sugar, and coconut and vanilla extracts for a stunning aroma.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Make scones. Preheat oven to 200°C. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, and coconut. Using a mixer on low speed, beat in the butter, then increase the speed to high and beat until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.
In another bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, eggs, and coconut extract, then stir into the butter mixture until evenly distributed. Stir in the nuts. Do not overwork the dough.

Place 5-7 cm diameter mounds of dough on prepared baking sheets (use a large ice cream scoop for best results). Sprinkle with sugar and bake until golden brown, 15-17 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the glaze. In a bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, coconut and vanilla extracts, and 1/2 cup powdered sugar until smooth, adding more powdered sugar if the glaze is too runny. Drizzle the glaze over the scones while they're still warm.
