Pumpkin Spice Coconut Macaroons
Description
This recipe prepares the macaroons by mixing dry ingredients—finely shredded unsweetened coconut, almond flour, pumpkin spice mix, and salt—with wet ones including maple syrup, pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. The combined batter is portioned onto parchment-lined baking sheets and baked at a moderate temperature. Turning the sheet halfway ensures even baking and browning. Cooling on the baking sheet before transferring preserves their structure.
The macaroons have a moist, chewy interior with aromatic warmth from pumpkin spice and a gentle coconut flavor. Maple syrup and pumpkin add natural sweetness and moisture, balanced by the almond flour’s texture. They work well as snack bites or holiday treats.

- 1.5 cups coconut unsweetened, finely shredded
- 1/2 cup almond flour

- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions

- Using a 1.5 tbsp cookie scoop, scoop the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Cook the macaroons for approximately 20 minutes, turning the baking sheet halfway through.
- Cool the macaroons on the baking sheet for at least 15 minutes before transferring to a plate.
