Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ cups Unsweetened shredded coconut (fine or small shreds not large)
  • ¼ cup Oat flour (finely ground almond flour is a great substitution)
  • 3 tbsp Solid coconut oil
  • ¼ cup Pure maple syrup

Optional:

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add coconut, oat flour, coconut oil, maple syrup and a pinch of salt to a high-powered blender or a food processor.
  • Blend on high until it’s well mixed and has a sticky consistency. Pause and scrape down the sides with a spatula if needed to get them all combined.
  • Use a small scoop to scoop out small little firmly packed balls onto the cookie sheet.
  • This recipe should make about 12 cookies. I shaped mine into more of a cookie shape rather than a ball.
  • Bake for about 12-16 minutes. The cookies are ready when the edges are golden brown and the tops are just lightly browned. Optional: Melt the plant-based dark chocolate and drizzle over top of the macaroons.
  • For best results, allow the cookies to cool for 30 mins - 1 hour. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

The cookies just won’t turn out right and will be super flat if you use large shreds of coconut. Make sure to get the fine or small shredded coconut for the best result.
Make sure to use solid coconut oil and not melted. Melted coconut oil will result in smaller macaroons.
