Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup blanched almond flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • Pinch of fine sea salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment. Stir coconut, almond flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Add egg whites and almond extract, mix into a sticky dough.
  2. Scoop tablespoon-sized mounds, press into compact balls, and place on the sheet. Flatten to ¾ inch thick.
  3. Bake 12–14 minutes until edges are golden and tops look dry. Let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

If your kitchen is warm, the dough may be stickier; chill it for 10 minutes before shaping to make it easier to handle.
