Yes, you’ll just need really finely ground coconut the same texture as ground almonds, or you can do a mix of coconut and almonds depending on how coconutty you want it. For the tests in the pictures I just did an exact swap
For the test ones I didn’t toast it, mostly out of laziness haha but you definitely could toast it, I don’t think it’ll need quite as long as the almonds
And that is the most important bit! There's loads of different techniques out there, I'll keep updating the blind baking posts as I test out new way of blind baking
Such an adventure, thankyou!
A tarty adventure is my kind of adventure!
Thank you for all your hard work and patience!
Thank you for reading!
This is super helpful. A million thanks! ☺️
Such a useful post - thank you so much!
Absolutely loved reading this. Such an impressive deep dive ❤️ and now all I can think about is making one in 32 degree heatwave 😂
Honestly making anything in this heatwave is a nightmare. I’ve been attempting to make bread all week and I’ve overproved every single batch 🫠
Love this! For a coconut frangipane, would you use the same amount as for ground almonds? X

I have watched a zillion videos on baking… not one of them illustrated the process of making tart SHELLS.

Thanks for the tip for toasting the nuts!
It’s really great for amping up the flavour without adding extract! I don’t mind extract but I know some people hate it
