FOUR-INGREDIENT GLUTEN-FREE ITALIAN COCONUT COOKIES



Four-Ingredient Gluten-Free Italian Coconut Cookies image

These traditional Italian soft cookies are a hit at any get-together. I've made them gluten free but you can use the same amount of all-purpose wheat flour instead of gluten-free flour. There are many variations of this cookie in Italy. Some people add chocolate chips and some drizzle dark chocolate over them once cooled.

GLUTEN-FREE & DAIRY-FREE COCONUT COOKIES



Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free Coconut Cookies image

I came up with these while trying to make something as a Christmas gift for a friend who cannot have gluten or dairy products and these turned out pretty good (after a failed attempt at butter-free, gluten-free shortbread). I drizzled with some melted dark chocolate for a more elegant look. My friend gave it a great review, so I'm posting it here for others to enjoy. Bon apetit!

Tips:

  • Use unsweetened coconut flakes: Sweetened coconut flakes contain added sugar, which can interfere with the cookies' texture and flavor.
  • Toast the coconut flakes: Toasting the coconut flakes enhances their flavor and gives the cookies a more golden color.
  • Use a combination of flours: Using a combination of flours, such as almond flour and tapioca flour, helps to create a chewy and flavorful cookie.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown: This ensures that the cookies are cooked through but still have a soft and chewy center.

Conclusion:

These gluten-free, dairy-free coconut cookies are a delicious and healthy treat that can be enjoyed by people with dietary restrictions. They are easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and toppings. Whether you are looking for a sweet snack or a healthy dessert, these cookies are sure to satisfy your cravings.
