How to make Sugar Free Banana Coconut Cookies

We can find a multitude of recipes to make banana and coconut cookies. Some of them use flour, alternatives such as oatmeal, either in flakes or crushed, recipes with or without egg… We, in search of a healthy recipe, are going to use only almond flour. We are not going to include egg, since with natural banana the texture will be similar. And, of course, we can not miss the coconut, one of the main ingredients of our recipe, which we will include grated.

For flavoring we have many options: with vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, a little grated lemon or orange zest… You have many options, but remember not to overdo it with the amount of these spices, as we would hide the original flavor of the cookies.

When we have mixed all these ingredients well, we just have to shape our cookies and bake them. For it, we will place them in the tray of the oven on a vegetable paper, or baking paper. It will be enough with approximately 15 minutes of baking, at 180ºC. Or, until you see that they begin to brown to your liking. And that’s how easy it is to prepare fantastic banana and coconut cookies. Let them cool well before eating them, as they will be better.

Ingredients

2 ripe bananas
80 g Grated coconut
50 g Almond flour
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 Pinch of salt

Instructions

Before starting with the dough we are going to put the oven to preheat. This way, as soon as we have the cookies ready, we can start baking them. Put the oven at 180ºC while we prepare the dough of our cookies.
In a bowl put the bananas without skin. With a fork, we are going to crush them until we get a homogeneous mixture. When they are well mashed, we incorporate the grated coconut and mix well.
Add the vanilla essence, the almond flour and a pinch of salt. Mix again until all the ingredients are completely integrated.
Now we can start shaping our cookies. We can help us with a spoon to always take the same amount so that all the cookies are the same size. We take a spoonful of dough and we make a ball with it. We place it on the baking tray, which we have previously covered with parchment paper, and flatten it slightly to give it the characteristic shape of the cookie. Leave a space of a couple of centimeters approximately between each cookie to prevent them from sticking during baking.
When you have all the dough spread on the tray, bake your cookies for about 15-20 minutes, at 180ºC (remember that we already had the oven preheated), or until they begin to brown.
Once ready, take them out of the oven and let them cool on the oven rack. This way they will be crispier than if you let them cool on the tray. And now we have ready some delicious banana and coconut cookies without sugar.

Want to simplify your recipe even more?

Although it is a very simple recipe, if you don’t have the necessary ingredients, you can make a much simpler dough. For example, with just banana, shredded coconut and some crushed seeds or nuts you can make a delicious dough for simple and healthy cookies. Mix the shredded coconut with the mashed bananas and add the seeds. Shape them into cookies and bake for about 10 minutes at 160ºC. And you will have great banana and coconut cookies without sugar, with only three ingredients.

Remember!

Always use very ripe bananas. This way, it will be much easier to mash them. In addition, you will get sweeter cookies and, on the other hand, it is a great way to take advantage of bananas that are already too ugly to eat or serve, but are still in perfect condition.

So get ready to prepare these cookies with the bananas that are forgotten at the bottom of the fruit drawer and you don’t know how to use them.
