Combine all-purpose flour, shredded coconut, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl.

Add water gradually to form a soft dough.

Knead the dough gently until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.

Divide the dough into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

Drop the dumplings into the boiling water and cook until they float, about 5-7 minutes.

Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and drain.

In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat.

Add vanilla extract, nutmeg, and cinnamon to the melted butter.

Toss the dumplings in the butter sauce until well coated.

Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar and lime zest.
