Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 3 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Method
In a large bowl, stir together coconut, cocoa powder and salt.
Add syrup, oil and vanilla and stir until well combined.
Using your hands (dampened, if you like), shape mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls and transfer to a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. (Alternatively, use a small ice cream scoop to form macaroons.)
Cover and refrigerate until cold and firm, about 1 hour.
Macaroons will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
