Passover – Gluten Free Coconut Macaroons

Makes 8

¼ cup raw honey

1 large egg white

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/4 cup whole almonds, chopped (toasted a little is nice too..)

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Pinch of sea salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Whisk together raw honey and egg white in a large bowl. Stir in the remaining ingredients.

Form dough into eight 2-tablespoon mounds, and drop each onto sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake macaroons until golden-brown on bottoms and edges, about 15 minutes. Let cool on sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to wire racks, and let cool. Macaroons will keep, covered, for up to 1 week.

You could make these coco macaroons by stirring in 2Tb of raw cocoa powder or carob powder. For a real twist, add some dried lavender flowers - beautiful !
