- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut plus a bit more if you want to roll them in at the end
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- 1/8 cup honey the original recipe called for 1/4, but we cut it down...feel free to increase if you want
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or almond, hazelnut, lemon, orange, whatever you want to try!
In a food processor, combine shredded coconut and coconut flour.
Pulse in salt, coconut oil, honey, and vanilla; Dough will form a ball.
Scoop batter 1 level tablespoon at a time onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. **We used latex gloves and it still took us a bit to get the hang of rolling them. It's worth the fight - I promise. I felt that shaping it in one hand worked best.
Optional - gently roll cookies in shredded coconut
Bake at 350° for 7 minutes
Cool in the freezer for at least a half hour or so and then enjoy!
