the coco-macademia cookies
These cookies are perfect when you're in need of a easy, delicious treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- ½ cup coconut flour
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- 2 Tbsp heaping maple syrup
- ⅓ cup coconut flakes
- ⅓ cup macadamia nuts, chopped
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- 2 eggs *vegan: sub 2 tbsp flax / 4 tbsp water
- 1 tsp vanilla
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F / 177°C
- Chop the macadamia nuts & let them soak in the maple syrup with a dash of sea salt *let them sit for at least 5 minutes, you can do this in advance too - an hour or so before
- Mix dry ingredients together. Mix the other wet ingredients together, then add the macadamias
- Pour wet ingredients into the dry & give a good stir
- Shape the cookies *see note
- Place on cooking sheet & bake for about 8min (2-3 minutes more for crispier cookies)
- NOTE: I find shaping cookies to be a pain because I want them to look perfectly round (a bit OCD). After many fails, I found that an ice cream scooper does the trick! This keeps the size and shape similar & makes a beautiful height. I then took a fork and pressed them down before baking.
