Ingredients
  

  • 2/3 cup/66g unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup/65g almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon of good quality matcha powder
  • 1/4 cup/85g coconut nectar or agave syrup, maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the shredded coconut, almond flour, and matcha powder.
  • Add the coconut nectar, and vanilla extract. Using a wooden spoon, mix for about 1 minute, or until it forms a slightly sticky paste. You can also use your hands to mix.
  • Using slightly wet hands, form 8 thick cylinders of about 1.5-inch wide and place them on the baking sheet. Don’t worry if they are close to each other, they won’t spread.
  • Bake for about 20-25 minutes. Then let cool at least 20 minutes before enjoying the cookies.
