Ingredients

• dry Ingredients:
• 1½ cup rolled oats
• ¾ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ¼ cup white sugar
• ¼ tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp baking soda
• ¼ tsp salt
• wet Ingredients:
• ½ cup coconut oil, melted/softened
• 3 tbs water
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• ½ cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

Method

1. Preheat oven to 375 °F
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silpat mat, and set aside
3. To a large bowl, add all dry ingredients (oats, flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) and stir to combine
4. To the dry mixture, add melted coconut oil, 3 tbs of water, vanilla extract
5. Stir everything together until oil and water are incorporated
6. Fold in shredded coconut
7. At this point, the mixture should be fairly crumbly, but will stay together if you press it between your fingers. If your mixture does not stay together, add another tbs of water and mix
8. Scoop 1.5 tbs of the mixture and roll into a ball in your hands, then flatten slightly (see the above photo in the post for an idea of how thick they should be)
9. Bake in preheated oven for 7-8 minutes, or until the edges are golden
10. Allow to cool on baking sheet for about a minute, then remove to wire rack to finish cooling
11. Enjoy!
