A good friend of mine came to stay with me for a little while and she brought me some vegan treats she wanted me to re-engineer. Stacey's Raw Vegan Coconut Macaroon Ingredients 1 1/4c organic shredded coconut 3/4c almond meal 1/2 tsp salt 1/2c organic maple syrup 1/4c coconut oil 2 tsp vanilla bean paste Mix the dry ingredients together. Mix the wet ingredients together and microwave until the coconut oil is liquid. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and mix with a fork. Using a stainless steel scoop (or you can use spoons and form them with your hands), make balls with the mixture. Put the balls on a tray covered in plastic wrap and allow them to dry overnight. This way the coconut will absorb some of the moisture and be softer. Store macaroons in an airtight container. Yummy! :) Thanks, Vidya.
