In a separate bowl sieve the flour and salt together. Mix in the coconut.

Add the dry mix to the wet mix and stir until all ingredients are combined and forms a stiff dough.

Use the end of a spoon to make a dent in the centre of the dough.

Using a piping bag filled with jam fill the dent being careful not to overfill, as it will bubble over during cooking.
