Ingredients required for making whole wheat egg-free coconut cookies

Desiccated coconut – it gives an authentic and unique flavour of coconut to the cookies.

Whole wheat flour– although maida gives a light texture to the cookies but not a health-friendly food item. So, I used whole wheat flour to increase the nutrient value of these cookies. It makes the cookies crisper due to their high fibre content.

Unsalted butter– I have used my homemade unsalted butter for this recipe. It gives a buttery flavour and crunchiness to the cookies. Make sure butter should be at room temperature and beat well with sugar. Beat the butter and sugar mixture nicely with the help of a hand whisk. You can also use an electric beater for a faster process.

Sugar – White powdered sugar is used. Can also be replaced with Brown sugar or jaggery but texture and colour might differ.

Number of Cookies I got

I got 14 cookies from this mixture. I have used one tbsp size measuring spoon to make even size cookies. If you want bigger, use a 1/8 size measuring cup or for smaller bite-size cookies use 1 tsp or ½ tbsp measuring spoon. Also, you can just divide it into equal portions and roll with your hand and bake.

With Increasing or decreasing the size of cookies, also the baking time is increased or decreased accordingly. These cookies are baked at 160 degrees Celsius or 325-degree Fahrenheit which keep its colour lighter, high temperature will bake the outside fast and the inside remains uncooked.

I always bake my cookies on a baking tray lined with parchment paper that helps in the proper baking of cookies and prevents burning from the lower side.

After shaping the cookies don’t forget to roll them into coconut powder that makes them more crispy and flavourful. Follow the step by step preparation of these mouth-watering healthy cookies and enjoy them with a hot cup of tea or coffee.
