The holiday season is the perfect time for baking and this is the perfect recipe for the eve of Christmas or Christmas day.
Ingredients:
3/4 to 1 cup of vanilla coconut creamer
2 tablespoons honey or grade B maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
2 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon of pumpkin spice
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350º F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
In a large bowl, combine the coconut creamer, honey, vanilla, pumpkin spice, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Mix until combined. Add in the coconut and stir till mixed throughout.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites and the salt until stiff peaks form. Use a rubber spatula to fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture.
Using a medium-sized (1 tablespoon) scoop, scoop balls onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Roll the balls or press together, if they come apart when disengaging from the scoop.
Bake the cookies for 20-24 minutes, until golden on top and a solid toasted brown across the bottom.
Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool completely.
Enjoy!
