These almond flour coconut cookies combine everything. A delicious coconut taste, a chewy and surprising texture, and any funky shape you want!

Inhaltsstoffe

US üblich - Metrisch

• ▢ 1 Tasse Mandelmehl - (Anmerkung 1)
• ▢ ½ Tasse Unsweetened Flaked Coconut - +1/4 cup if desired (note 2)
• ▢ 3 Esslöffel Kokosnussöl - melted, cooled (note 3)
• ▢ ¼ Tasse Ahornsirup - (Anmerkung 4)

Optional

• ▢ ½ Teelöffel Kokosextrakt - for a boost of coconut flavor

Anleitungen

• Den Backofen auf 180 °C (350 °F) vorheizen. Ein großes Backblech mit Backpapier auslegen. Das Papier leicht mit Speiseöl besprühen. Beiseite stellen.
• In a mixing bowl, add almond flour and coconut flakes. Start with 1/2 cup and see later if you want to add more – maple syrup, and melted coconut oil. Add the optional coconut extract.
• Stir with a rubber spatula then lightly oil your hands or wear gloves to knead the dough and press the ingredients together to form a soft cookie dough.
• Stir to form a sticky cookie dough, then grab about 2 tablespoons and place on the prepared baking sheet leaving half a thumb of space between each. I made 8 cookies.
• Sprinkle a few extra coconut chips on top and press on the top with your hand to stick and lightly flatten each cookie.
• Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C) until golden brown on the sides and top.
• Let the cookies cool down on the baking sheet for 15 minutes to firm up then on a cooling rack.

Notizen

Hinweise 1: Almond meal works as well, but the dough will be darker in color and the cookies slightly grainy.

Hinweise 2: Coconut flakes are large white flakes of dried coconut. You can also swap for unsweetened shredded coconut. Depending on the size of the flakes, you may be able to add from 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup. You know you added enough when you can squeeze the dough into a ball and it firms up nicely. Coconut flakes don’t make the dough break or fall apart.

Hinweise 3: You can use melted plant-based butter too, or butter if you use dairy in your kitchen, we do not use dairy in our recipe.

Hinweise 4: You can use any liquid sweeteners like agave syrup or coconut nectar.

Lagerung: You can store the cookies in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Freeze them in Ziploc bags for up to 1 month. Thaw at room temperature the day before.

Ofenmodus: Ich verwende die Umluftfunktion. Falls Sie die Ober-/Unterhitze nutzen müssen, empfehle ich, die Temperatur um 15 °C zu erhöhen. Die Backzeit sollte gleich bleiben, kann sich aber um einige Minuten verlängern.

Zutaten und Substitutionen

Für diese Kekse benötigen Sie nur 4 Zutaten. So wählen Sie diese aus.

• Mandelmehl – The base ingredient for these cookies, almond flour creates a soft texture while maintaining the gluten-free nature of the recipe. Almond meal can be used as a substitute, but it will result in darker and slightly grittier cookies. Other flours, such as oat or wheat, cannot be used here because they would alter the flavor and texture significantly.
• Unsweetened Flaked Coconut – This adds a chewy texture and rich coconut flavor to the cookies. You can use unsweetened shredded coconut as a substitute, adjusting the amount to maintain the right dough consistency. Feel free to saturate the dough with more coconut flakes. Add up to an extra 1/4 cup but watch out, you should still be able to squeeze the dough and form a ball without it being too crumbly or fragile. Too much coconut flakes would make the dough crumbly, not moist.
• Kokosnussöl – This provides moisture and a subtle coconut undertone while helping the cookies hold together. Melted plant-based butter can be used as a swap for a slightly richer flavor, but avoid solid oils like shortening, as they don’t provide the same moisture or binding.
• Ahornsirup – The liquid sweetener that binds the dough and adds a natural sweetness. Alternatives like agave syrup or coconut nectar work well, but avoid thicker syrups like date syrup, as they may weigh down the dough.
• Coconut Extract (Optional) – It intensifies the coconut flavor for those who love a bolder tropical taste. If omitted, the cookies will still have a pleasant coconut profile from the flakes and oil. Vanilla extract can be used as a substitute for a milder and slightly sweeter flavor.

How to Make Almond Flour Coconut Cookies

These cookies are super easy to whip up. The secret is all about the consistency of the dough with the coconut flakes.

Alle Zutaten in eine große Rührschüssel geben.

Stir the mixture until sticky and form cookie dough balls with your hands or with a cookie scoop.

Place the cookie dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and flatten them with your hands.

Backen Sie die Kekse 12-15 Minuten lang bei 180 °C (350 °F).

Carines Tipps

I have a few more tips for you to make the very best cookies:

1. Balance Coconut Flakes Carefully – Start with 1/2 cup of flakes and test the dough. Add up to 1/4 cup more, but stop if the dough becomes too dry or crumbly, as the cookies may not hold together.
2. Choose the Right Coconut Form – Use large flakes for the chewiest texture, but if substituting shredded coconut, use slightly less to avoid overwhelming the dough structure.
3. Kokosöl kühl halten – Ensure melted coconut oil is cooled (but not solid) before adding it to the dough to prevent prematurely melting the maple syrup and affecting the consistency.
4. Use Gloves or Grease Hands for Shaping – This dough is sticky, so lightly oil your hands or wear gloves to shape and flatten the cookies easily.
5. Experimentieren Sie mit Add-Ins – This recipe is very versatile. You can stir in mini chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or finely chopped nuts like pistachios for extra flavor and texture.
6. Überwachen Sie die Backzeit – Remove the cookies as soon as the edges turn golden brown. They may feel soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
7. Vor der Handhabung vollständig abkühlen lassen. – Allow cookies to rest for at least 15 minutes on the baking sheet to firm up before transferring to a cooling rack. Handling them too soon may cause breakage.
8. Avoid Overmixing the Dough – Mix just until combined to prevent the cookies from becoming dense or losing their delicate texture.
9. Auf Konsistenz prüfen – Squeeze a bit of dough in your hand; it should hold together without crumbling. If it’s too dry, add a teaspoon of maple syrup or coconut oil and mix again.

Aufbewahrungstipps

You can store at room temperature for up to 2-3 days, or refrigerate in an airtight container für bis zu 4 Tage for maximum chewiness. To freeze, place the cookies in a single layer in a freezer bag. Thaw overnight in the fridge or for 1 hour at room temperature before serving.
