Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup almond butter (or peanut butter, but not paleo)
- ½ cup Lakanto maple syrup flavored monkfruit
- ½ cup coconut oil
- 5 tablespoons raw cacao
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups shredded coconut (or gluten free oats, but not paleo or low carb)
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Heat the almond butter, monkfruit syrup, raw cacao, vanilla extract, and coconut oil together on the stove over medium-low heat.
- Stir Continuously: Stir the mixture continually so it melts quickly and blends well, being careful to avoid burning the bottom or sides.
- Add Shredded Coconut: Remove the mixture from heat and add the shredded coconut.
- Mix Thoroughly: Gently stir in the shredded coconut to ensure there are no clumps and the mixture is well combined.
- Cool the Mixture: Let the cookie mixture cool until it thickens, approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Stir occasionally to help it cool faster.
- Form Cookies: Using a large spoon, place scoops of the cookie mixture onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
- Chill to Set: Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator for at least one hour or in the freezer for about 20 minutes until the cookies are solid.
- Store Properly: Store the cookies in a sealed container in the refrigerator and keep them cold at all times to prevent melting.
Notes
- Almond butter is preferred for paleo compliance; peanut butter can be used but is not paleo.
- Shredded coconut can be substituted with gluten-free oats if not following paleo or low carb.
- Ensure the mixture is monitored closely during heating to prevent burning.
- Cookies must be kept refrigerated to maintain their shape and texture.
- Using monkfruit syrup keeps the recipe sugar-free and keto-friendly.
