Ingredients

  • 3 cups of shredded coconut
  • 1 cup of gluten free flour
  • 1 heaping cup of vegan condensed milk
  • ¼ cup of coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla

Instructions

  • Line a tray with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 160c (325f)
  • In a medium bowl, place the coconut along with the gluten free flour and stir.
  • Add the vanilla and then pour in the vegan condensed coconut milk
  • Use a spoon to mix everything together so it congeals
  • Use a spoon (or hands) to form the coconut mixture into macaroons
  • Bake in the oven until slightly golden (should take 10-15 minutes). Keep an eye on the oven while they bake because they have the potential to burn quite quickly
