Coconut Chocolate Pecan Cookies

These cookies are more moist than the last cookie recipe I posted. Next time I'm trying them with chunky peanut butter!

4 Eggs
2 TB Coconut Oil, melted
1 box of pure creamed coconut (170g)
1/4 Cup honey - eliminate this for the low carb version
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup full fat coconut milk
1 TB vanilla extract
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 tsp baking powder
4 Squares of Lindt 85% Dark Chocolate, roughly chopped
1/2 Cup Pecans, roughly chopped

Preheat the oven to 350F

1) Whisk the 4 eggs in a large bowl

2) In a medium bowl, melt the creamed coconut, honey, and butter together. Once liquefied, add the coconut milk and vanilla extract

3) Slowly incorporate the coconut liquid into the egg, stirring constantly

4) Sprinkle the coconut flour and baking powder over the wet mixture and mix until it forms a soft dough

5) Fold in the chopped chocolate and pecans

6) Roll into balls and pat down on a cookie sheet (aprx 24 cookies)

7) Bake at 350F for 15-17 minutes

Without the honey, these cookies have only 1.4g of net carbs per cookie!

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Here's my take on this recipe from Chocolate and Carrots

Ingredients:
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
6 eggs
1 banana, mashed
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup butter, softened (or coconut oil)
25g 80% dark chocolate (about 1/4 of a bar), roughly chopped*

Cinnamon

Directions:
1) Preheat the oven to 350°.

2) In a medium bowl, mix the flour, salt and baking soda.

3) In another bowl, beat the eggs, coconut milk, butter and banana with a hand mixer.

4) Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and blend again with the hand mixer.

5) Fold in the chocolate chunks.

6) Pour into a greased loaf pan and sprinkle with cinnamon

7) Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

*I'm thinking you could easily leave out the chocolate chunks and replace with walnuts or pecans for a lovely banana nut loaf

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:
2 Cups Almond Flour
1 Cup Coconut Flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3 eggs
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup butter
50g dark chocolate, roughly chopped (half of a bar, the less sugar the better)

Directions:
1) Preheat the oven to 375 F

2) Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl

3) In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla and beat with a hand mixer

4) Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until dough begins to form

5) melt the butter and add to the batter

6) Fold in the chocolate chunks

7) Form dough balls into cookie shape and place on a well greased cookie sheet or use non stick foil. The cookies don't rise or spread so form them into the shape you want and line them up as close together as you like.

8) Bake for 15 minutes until slightly browned at the edges.
