Orange-Coconut Cookies

• I use my Vitamix to grind all the dry ingredients to a fine flour and use it again to mix all the wet ingredients to a smooth liquid.

Dry ingredients:

• 1 cup of raw almonds
• 11/2 cups of coconut flour
• 1/2 cup of oats
• Blend until a fine flour is formed

Wet ingredients:

• 1/2 cup of coconut oil
• Juice of 1/2 orange
• 1/3 cup of maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• Blend until smooth
• Combine dry and wet ingredients and add grated peel of one orange. Whisk until well blended. The cookie batter will be a little crumbly.
• Take a spoonful of the batter and form a ball with your hands.
• Put it on a parchment lined baking sheet and press it down to form a flat cookie, repeat with the rest of the batter.
• Arrange cookies close together, they will not expand while baking.
• Bake cookies at 350 degrees F (175 C) for 15-20 minutes until golden at the edges.
• Cookies will be soft when warm and crunchy as they cool.
