Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180 C (350 F) standard / 160 C (320 F) fan-forced. Grease and line an 8-inch square pan with baking or parchment paper, ensuring two sides overhang (this will make it easier to remove the slice later).
- In a large mixing bowl, add sugar, flour and coconut. Whisk to combine. Add melted butter and stir until moist. Mixture should resemble wet sand.
- Place mixture into baking pan and press down to form one even layer. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or until the crust is slightly golden on the edges. Remove from oven.
- While the base is still warm, spread over jam to form one even layer. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add egg, sugar and vanilla. Give it a good whisk for 30 seconds or so until combined. Stir through shredded coconut.
- Spread this coconut meringue mixture over the jam. Spread out to form one layer - don't worry too much if it's a bit patchy here and there. Place bake in the oven for another 10-14 minutes or until topping turns golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and leave in pan to cool completely. Cut into small slices and serve fresh.

Tips:

- Toast the coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown, stirring constantly. This will bring out the flavor and aroma of the coconut.
- Use a combination of butter and oil to grease the baking dish. This will help prevent the coconut slice from sticking.
- Press the coconut mixture firmly into the prepared baking dish. This will help it hold together when sliced.
- Bake the coconut slice in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Allow the coconut slice to cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help it set and make it easier to cut.
