Perfectly crispy, decadently creamy and finely sweetened, these La Cotta filled scones with pistachios and almonds are a dream come true!

Medium

45'

6

  • 240g La Cotta (2 packs)
  • 2-3 tbsp agave syrup
  • 100g plant-based milk
  • 1/2 rectangular shortcrust pastry
  • Coconut oil to grease the metal cones

To brush on cones before baking:

  • 1 tbsp plant-based milk
  • 1 tbsp oil

To decorate the cones after baking:

  • 1 tsp almond granules
  • 1 tsp pistachio granules
  • Powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Turn the oven on to 200°C (fan function).
  2. Grease the exterior of the metal cones with coconut oil.
  3. Take the shortcrust pastry horizontally in front of you and cut 6-7 strips 2-3 cm wide lengthwise.
  4. Wrap each strip on a cone starting at the tip and leaving some space at the base of the cone.
  5. In a bowl mix vegetable milk and seed oil and brush on each cone.
  6. Bake leaving the cones lying flat.
  7. While the cones are in the oven mix La Cotta, agave syrup and plant-based milk in a bowl. Taste and adjust for sweetness.
  8. Once the cones are well browned, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Then remove them from the metal cones.
  9. Put the La Cotta cream in a piping bag and fill each cone to the brim, pressing down gently.
  10. Place almond and pistachio granules in a small dish and dip the exposed creamy part of the cone into it.
  11. Enjoy your cones!

La Cotta

La Cotta is an incredibly versatile ingredient that can be used in both savory and sweet dishes. And obviously eaten as is too! 

I love cooking with La Cotta because the options are endless. These cones were so fun to make and I’m so happy with how they turned out!
