| Maple Cinnamon Coconut Cookies |
| photo by recipe author |
Servings: 20 cookies
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cookies:
- 2 cups shredded coconut [1] (I re-hydrated mine by soaking for a few hours because it was really hard, if you have softer coconut you probably don’t need to soak)
- 6 tablespoons coconut flour [2]
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons maple syrup [3] (for truly raw, you could raw honey [4])
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract [5] (or dried vanilla bean powder)
- 4 tablespoons melted coconut oil [6]
Maple-Cinnamon Icing:
- 1/4 cup packed dates
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup [3] (or raw honey [4])
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon [7]
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil [6]
- Water to thin
Combine all ingredients for cookies. Roll into balls, place on a wax-paper lined flat surface and press into a round cookie shape.
Combine ingredients for glaze in a food processor. Pipe onto cookies. Top with nuts if desired. Freeze until hardened.
