Report
Chocolate Coconut Macaroons are made with just 5 ingredients and are naturally sweetened for a healthy treat! You can enjoy them as a no-bake dessert, or bake them for a crunchier cookie that can sit out at room temperature.

Ingredients
- 1/4 cup almond butter (70 grams)
- 1/3 cup cacao powder (29 grams)
- 1/2 cup maple syrup (157 grams)
- 1/4 tsp sea salt (2 grams)
- 2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut (194 grams)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF, if you plan on baking these, and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir together the almond butter, cacao powder, maple syrup, and salt.
- Add in the coconut and stir again, until all of the coconut is coated in the chocolate mixture.
- Use a tablespoon or 1-ounce cookie scoop to scoop the dough and drop it onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, making roughly 21 mounds. Use your hands to press any pieces into place, or shape the cookie how you like. They won't spread with baking or freezing.
- To bake the cookies, place them in the oven for 15 minutes. They will not feel firm to the touch at first, but they will firm up as they cool completely. For a no-bake cookie, simply place the pan in the freezer to set, about 1 to 2 hours. Transfer the frozen cookies to an airtight container and store in the freezer to protect their flavor.
- Serve the macaroons at room temperature if you baked them, or straight from the freezer as a no-bake dessert. The baked cookies will last at room temperature for up to 2 weeks (or longer in the fridge) or they will keep for up to 3 months frozen.
Notes
- Nutrition information is for 1 of 21 pieces. This will vary based on how many macaroons you make. This is automatically calculated, and just an estimate, not a guarantee.
