Ingredients & Substitutions
Cake Flour: Cake flour is made from a specific variety of soft wheat. It is finely milled with a lower protein content than all-purpose flour, resulting in a delicate texture for cakes, pastries, and other baked goods. We recommend using bleached cake flour for best results, or unbleached for a more natural option.
Room Temperature Ingredients: For best results, use room temperature butter and milk in the recipe.
Glaze: The sweet glaze not only adds flavor but also helps to preserve the moisture in the sconuts.
Creating Smaller Sconuts
This homemade sconuts recipe makes 8 large pieces. To make them smaller, simply create two circles of dough instead of one. Then, you can cut each circle into 8 sections, giving you 16 sconuts.
Can I Make Sconuts Ahead of Time?
Sure! You can certainly get the dough made in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cutting and baking.
How to Store Sconuts
We recommend storing your homemade sconuts in an airtight container at room temperature for optimal freshness. You can also store them in the refrigerator for a chilled treat. To ensure your sconuts maintain their delicious flavor and texture, be sure to enjoy them within 2-3 days of baking.
