Instructions

  1. Prepare a oven tray and line it with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 360F or 180C.
  2. Mix the flour, sugar and salt together.
  3. Add the coconut oil and a tablespoon of warm water. The warm water will soften the coconut oil a bit.
  4. Knead with your hands until you can make a ball. Divide the ball into small balls.
  5. Press the balls into cookie shapes. If necessary, you can fill the cracks with wet fingers for nice edges.
  6. Put the cookies in the oven for about 15 minutes. The time depends a bit on the thickness. The thicker, the longer they need. Thin cookies burn faster. They can brown a bit on the edges.
  7. Let the cookies cool for at least half an hour. Only then will they become hard.
