Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F/ 180°C (fan oven 330°F/ 165°C). Line the baking sheets with parchment paper. If using a fan oven, you will be able to bake two baking sheets of cookies simultaneously.

- Add egg and vanilla extract and stir well to combine.1 large egg + 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Mix flour, baking soda, salt, and about ½ of the coconut flakes in a separate bowl. Add them to the butter mixture and mix on low to medium speed for about 30 seconds.1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour / 170 g + ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt + 1 teaspoon baking soda + ½ of ¾ cup unsweetened coconut
- Fold in the remaining coconut flakes and the chopped pecan by hand using a spoon. ½ cup pecans / 55 g
- Form 12 cookie dough balls (about 1.8 oz/ 50 g each) and place 6 on each prepared baking sheet (Note 4).
- Bake the cookies for 9 to 11 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges.
- Let them rest on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Equipments used:
Notes
- Butter: Unsalted butter with a high-fat content (82%).
- Measurements: It’s preferable to use a digital kitchen scale in baking (the Amazon affiliate link opens in a new tab); it guarantees the best results.
- Nuts: You can substitute pecans with walnuts, macadamia, hazelnuts, or almonds.
- Chilling: Although general chilling is unnecessary, keeping the “waiting” dough balls refrigerated while you bake the first batch is best.
