I love Coconut and like to experiment with it. And why not?

It’s loaded with the right nutrients. Coconut has 

• No cholesterol, or trans fats

Crunchy and chewy, these cookies melt in your mouth and gives you an experience that no other cookie can! Making coconut cookies at home is not that difficult as it sounds, and can be easily made with a little effort. The traditional method of preparing Coconut Cookies.

 

Furthermore, some important tips and suggestions with variations to make a perfect coconut cookies recipe. Firstly, in this recipe, i have used wheat flour to make it a healthy biscuit recipe. But from a taste-wise, it tastes great when made with plain flour or maida atta. Secondly, i have baked these cookies in a convection microwave. You can make these in a pressure cooker or an OTG. While you can bake in oven or otg at 180-degree Celcius for 15 minutes, but if you are using the cooker, use old and not a new pressure cooker. Potentially you may spoil the cooker and hence use accordingly. Lastly, do not use freshly grated coconut for this recipe and use desiccated coconut as directed. It should be dry and moisture-free while mixing it with the cookie batter.

 

I am not a huge fan of baking cookies at home, and i like to buy it from local bakeries. But i always get a lot of requests to make some homemade baked biscuits or cookies recipes. Particularly i get for more of eggless recipes as most of the store-bought do contain egg in it. Traditionally egg yolks are added to cake or cookie batter to make it moist, creamy and also to hold the shape. the same can be achieved by adding ingredients like baking soda and baking powder. To be honest, i feel these artificial agents may not be the same match to egg yolks. But still a great alternative to making an eggless coconut cookies recipe.

 

Instead of making biscuits shapes initially, you can first make a simple dough, refrigerate it and then shape it into cookies after 30 minutes of chilling.
Whole sugar will add much crunch to it as it doesn’t melt completely even after baking. However, you can powder it before using it.
Don’t think that you can use salted butter and skip the extra salt added. Butter has high salt content than the pinch, which we have added.
