Coconut-Butter Cookies (with dairy-free version)

Recipe: Coconut-Butter Cookies (with dairy-free version)

1/2 cup coconut oil

1/2 cup pastured butter (or sub with 1/4 cup coconut oil)

3/4 cup coconut sugar (I get mine at Costco)

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

1 egg

2 tsp pure vanilla extract

3 cups almond flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

coconut chips for garnish (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt coconut oil and butter and beat together with coconut sugar, maple syrup, egg and vanilla. Stir in remaining ingredients (except coconut chips). Scoop onto baking sheet and gently press a coconut chip (if desired) into the center of each cookie. Bake for about 9-10 minutes, until beginning to turn golden brown. Let cook on wire rack for a few minutes before eating.
