  I wondered exatly the same thing about the butter, I greased the flan tin with it but think it should have gone in the mixture. Tart is yummy, it is nearly finished and I only baked it this morning and there is only 2 of us in the house.

  It says in the ingredients 25g butter but does not say where to add it. Also how much cinnamon? No measurement? Made it anyway and added the butter to the coconut mixture. Was very rich but yummy cake. I also have to reduce the cooking temperature for the pastry and it browned very quickly

  Great recipe and quite delicious but where do you add the melted butter? There is no mention in the method. Is it to grease the tin or to add to the mixture?

  This is a lovely recipe. I used a ready made pastry case which made it so quick and easy. I'll definitely make it again.

  this recipe was so easy, great just as it is but also very good slightly different. As i have a very hungry family i am always looking for ways to make dishes go further, i removed the spices, added 50g of breadcrumbs and an extra egg to the coconut mix. Made the tart in a dish one size up and added rasberry jam to the base. The kids love it straight from the fridge if it lasts that long !!

  Made this today. Was very tasty but a little goes a long way, I found it quite rich and a little on the sickly side. That said the boys (my partner and his brother) thought it was really good. I didn't serve any icecream with it or anything I definitly would next time though.
