Description

Coconut flour and coconut oil give these soft cookies - sweetened only with mashed bananas - a subtle coconut flavor.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons coconut oil, or as needed
1/2 cup twice-sifted coconut flour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 1/3 cups mashed ripe bananas
3 large eggs
1/3 cup extra-virgin coconut oil, warmed slightly
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) using the convection setting. Grease 2 cookie sheets with 1 teaspoon coconut oil each.
2 Mix coconut flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt together in a small bowl.
3 Combine mashed bananas, eggs, 1/3 cup coconut oil, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Slowly add the flour mixture while continuing to mix.
4 Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the greased cookie sheets. Flatten cookies using the back of the spoon.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until no longer wet, about 35 minutes.
