Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 eggs
2 cups buttermilk
4 cups whole wheat pastry flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cold butter -- plus
2 tablespoons cold butter
2 tablespoons coconut oil -- cold
1 cup shredded coconut meat
1 cup craisins -- coarsely chopped
2 1/2 cups pecans -- coarsely chopped
Preheat oven to 400F.
Using a 2-cup measuring cup, add eggs and gently beat. Next, fill to
the 2 cup line with buttermilk. Mix and set aside.
In a medium bowl sift in flour, baking powder and salt and then add
brown sugar and toss together. Next, coarsely chop your pecans and Craisins.
Using a pastry blender, cut in cold butter and cold coconut oil into
flour until mixture is crumbly, then add your coconut, Craisins and
pecans. Pour buttermilk into mixture and gently stir just until the
dough comes together.
On a baking sheet lined with unwaxed parchment paper, drop dough,
distributing evenly to make 2 dozen. I use a heaping 1/4 cup scoop.
Place in heated oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes.
