Vanilla Bean Coconut Macaroons (Egg and Nut-Free)
Servings: 20
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until a dough forms.
With a small cookie scoop, form macaroons and place on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. You could also roll into balls and slightly press them down on cookie sheet.
Bake in preheated oven for about 8 minutes or until very slightly brown.
Let cookies cool to set up. They will fall apart when warm. These can be stored at room temperature. For a harder cookie, store in the refrigerator.
Quick notes:
*For the freshest coconut milk, make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)
**I have not tried this with a liquid sweetener. You would need to reduce the amount to 1/4 cup or less, and it may make the dough too runny. If that happens, just add more coconut until the dough is thick enough to form into balls.

Grain-Free Peach Cookie Bars
Servings: 8
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line an 8 x 8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. This makes it really easy to get the bars out in one piece.
Place all of the dry ingredients into a food processor and combine.
Add in the butter, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon of milk and pulse until a dough forms. The dough should form a ball and be wet. Add more milk if needed.
Press the dough into the baking dish until fully covered, then place the peach slices on top of the dough.
Bake at 350 degrees for 32–35 minutes or until the top is golden.
Let cool and remove the bars from the pan by pulling up on the sides of the parchment paper. Cut into desired size bars.
Store in an airtight container. These are great at room temperature, but, as with all almond flour goodies, I think they are best out of the freezer!!! Let them sit for a minute or two out of freezer to thaw the peach slices.
Quick notes:
*You can grind your own almond flour by placing whole almonds in a blender/food processor and blending until you get a fine meal.
**For the freshest coconut milk, make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)
Softened coconut oil should work in place of the butter for those that are dairy-free.

Place all of the ingredients into a blender and combine.
Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the instructions for the machine. You can also freeze it in a loaf pan if you don’t have an ice cream maker.
Variations:
*For the freshest coconut milk, make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)
***Using honey or maple syrup is going to give this a bit of a different taste compared to granulated sweetener.
Consuming raw eggs is not a concern of mine since I buy eggs from Healthy Traditions. You can certainly leave them out or temper the eggs.
