- Preparation: 20 min
- Cooking: 20 min
- Makes: 1 serving (99.3 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, gluten
Ingredients
- 35 g Pie crust, unbaked
- 28 g Coconut, desiccated
- 16 g Sugar, brown
- 1 g Ginger, ground
- 0.3 g Nutmeg
- 4 g Butter, unsalted

Method
- Roll the pastry out thin and cut into small rounds about 8 cm across.
- Press each round into a small tart tin or muffin cup and pinch the edges up into a decorative pinched rim; prick the base lightly.
- Simmer the dried coconut, brown sugar, ginger, nutmeg, butter and water in a small pan for 6-8 minutes until thick, sticky and fragrant.
