Sides Snacks

By Stacey Clare, A Healthy Mum

The simple things in life are often the best. Made with just two ingredients, these cookies are a perfect balance of good fats and natural sugars. Combined, the result is something incredibly delicious.

These cookies are delicious served as is or for something extra special, use them to make healthy ice cream sandwiches. If they go soft, pop them in the freezer and they will crisp up nicely.

Ingredients
Method

¾ cup Shredded Coconut
1 large, ripe banana (the more ripe the banana the more concentrated its natural sugars are. This makes them especially perfect for baking)

Step 1Preheat your oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with a sheet of baking paper. Toast the coconut in a pan over a medium heat until it is lightly browned.
Step 2Add the banana to a blender with the toasted coconut. Pulse until the mixture comes together and the coconut is fine.
Step 3Shape the mixture into discs and space apart evenly on the baking tray. If the mixture is runny, spoon it onto the tray. Bake the cookies until golden (approximately 25 minutes). Store in the fridge for 3 days or the freezer for 1 month.
