I've been trying to recreate my hubby's favorite Raw Coco-roon cookies for awhile now and I think these fit the bill. I'm not usually the baker in the family and these fit in line with that since they are no-bake! If you are looking for a new cookie option, give these a try. These use coconut sugar, which looks similar to brown sugar but has a lower glycemic index than regular sugar. The kiddos love them too. Enjoy!
Recipe: (yields 12-14 cookies)
Ingredients:
1 cup Organic Finely Shredded Coconut, plus more for dusting
1/2 cup Almond Meal/Flour
3-4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons melted Organic Coconut Oil
2 tablespoons Organic Coconut Sugar
1/4 teaspoon good quality vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon good quality salt
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl using a fork to combine.
2. Using a tablespoon measuring spoon to scoop out the mixture and form it into a ball. Roll and sprinkle with extra coconut flakes and place on a Silpat or parchment lined baking sheet (or have a helpful 4 year old help you).
3. Pop tray into the fridge for 1 hour to firm up then enjoy!
