Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup Coconut Oil melted
  • 1/3 cup Pure Maple Syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon Coconut Extract
  • 1 cup Almond Flour
  • 1/3 cup Coconut Flour
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut plus 1/4 cup for rolling (rolling is optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.
  • In a large microwave safe bowl, melt the coconut oil in the microwave. Stir in the maple syrup, coconut butter and coconut extract and mix until combined.
  • Add the remaining ingredients, except for the additional shredded coconut, and stir until thoroughly combined.
  • Roll the dough into eighteen 1" balls. If the dough is too soft to roll into balls, refrigerate for about 30 minutes or until firm.
  • Roll the balls in the shredded coconut, if desired, and place one inch apart on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies brown lightly around the edges.
  • Remove the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to one week.
