Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 cups small unsweetened coconut flakes These little fibers bring a delightful chewiness and rich coconut essence.
  • 1 4 cups finely ground blanched almond flour Adds nutty flavor and enhances the texture.
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil (solid or melted) Binds the ingredients and adds a subtle coconut flavor.
  • 1 4 cup pure maple syrup Natural sweetener that enhances the coconut’s richness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper to prevent sticking.
  2. In a food processor, combine the coconut flakes, almond flour, coconut oil, and maple syrup.
  3. Pulse until the mixture forms a wet and sticky dough, ensuring there are smaller pieces of coconut remaining.
  4. Using a cookie scoop, firmly pack and shape the mixture into small balls (about a tablespoon each).
  5. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 10-15 minutes or until the macaroons are firm.
  6. Enjoy immediately or store leftovers for later.

Notes

Consider customizing flavors with vanilla extract or mixing in chocolate chips or dried fruit. Adjust texture with more maple syrup if too dry or almond flour if too wet.
