Let's Do This!
Preheat your oven to 350F or 175C.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Wet ingredients from above. Whisk until well combined. As a note, the butter and sweetener may separate as you combine them. This is a reaction between the two and will not impact the recipe. It just looks odd if you've never seen it.
In a medium sized mixing bowl, combing the Dry ingredients from above. Whisk to break any clumps and combine.
Slowly add the Dry ingredients into the Wet ingredients while mixing. I like to do this in three parts.
Once all of the wet and dry ingredients are combined, set the dough aside for 2-3 minutes to allow to coconut flour to absorb some moisture.
On a shallow plate, combine the Topping ingredients with a fork.
Divide the dough into 12 portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
Coat each dough ball in the Topping blend before placing it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Lightly flatten the dough to make a puck shape.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, until edges are just starting to turn golden brown. Do not overcook these.
Allow the cookies to cool completely before touching them or they can fall apart.
Once cool, enjoy.
These are delish! My bake time was quite different (22 minutes), but they turned out amazing!
