Recipe Summary
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time:</strong 10 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Servings: 24 cookies
Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil and honey. Mix well until smoothly blended.
- Add the eggs one at a time, stirring thoroughly after each addition. Incorporate the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms. The dough will thicken slightly as the coconut flour absorbs the moisture.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Gently flatten each ball of dough with the back of a spoon or your fingertips.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake, as coconut flour tends to dry out quickly.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Helpful Tips
- If the dough is too thick, add an additional egg or a tablespoon of milk (any type you prefer).
- For a different twist, add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or chopped nuts to the dough.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
Pairings
These delightful cookies pair wonderfully with a glass of almond milk, a warm cup of herbal tea, or as a crunchy texture alongside some yogurt. They also make a perfect companion to a fresh fruit salad.
