Gluten Free & Dairy Free Tropical Slice

Pineapple & Coconut all mixed up in this delicious slice.

Ingredients

  • 250 g gluten free plain flour
  • 220 g golden caster sugar when measuring split this into 2 separate 110g portions
  • 125 g dairy free hard margarine
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 180 g desiccated coconut
  • Pineapple Jam

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180C.
  • Grease a square baking tin (around 21cm x 21cm would work well)
  • Rub together the gluten free flour, 110g of sugar & the dairy free hard margarine until it forms a breadcrumb consistency.
  • Add 1 egg and the vanilla extract to the bowl & mix until it forms a dough like consistency. (I used an electric whisk for this)
  • Bring together the dough into a lump with your hands. (I found mine was a little sticky but resist adding extra flour)
  • Press the dough into your prepared baking tin evenly and bake in the oven till slightly golden.. this will take about 15 minutes. (I pressed it in with my hands!)
  • After 15 minutes take the baking tin out of the oven and put to one side.
  • Whisk together the 2 remaining eggs & the other 110g of sugar.
  • Stir in the desiccated coconut.
  • Spread your pineapple jam all over your base. (I put mine on when slightly warm which worked well!)
  • Spread your coconut mixture over the jam.
  • Put it back in the oven for a further 20 minutes or until golden.
  • Allow to completely cool in the baking tin before removing and cutting into slices.
  • Enjoy!
