Ingredients

  • 80g/2¾oz desiccated coconut
  • 125ml/4½fl oz full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp coconut flour
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Line a baking tray with baking parchment.
  • Stir all of the ingredients together in a saucepan over a medium heat until well combined. Continue to cook for 4-5 minutes until the coconut milk has been absorbed into the mixture and the mixture has thickened. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  • Scoop tablespoonfuls of the macaroon mixture onto the prepared baking tray, to form small domes, leaving a gap between each. Bake in the middle of the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until toasted and golden-brown at the edges.
  • Remove from the oven and set the macaroons aside to cool completely, then enjoy.
