½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
¼ cup honey
¼ cup coconut oil, melted
¼ cup water

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Set to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour and shredded coconut.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a smaller bowl, whisk together honey, melted coconut oil, and water until smooth.
Form Dough: Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix until a cohesive dough forms. Adjust with a splash of water if too dry or a pinch of flour if too sticky.
Roll & Cut: Lightly flour your surface and roll dough to ¼ inch thickness. Cut into shapes using cookie cutters or knife.
Bake: Place treats on prepared baking sheet and bake for 15–20 minutes, until golden and firm.
Cool: Let treats cool completely on the baking sheet before serving.

Tips for Success

Ensure coconut oil is fully melted for smooth mixing.
Don’t overwork the dough mix just until combined to keep treats tender.
Rolling dough evenly ensures uniform baking. Chill sticky dough 10 minutes before rolling if needed.

Storage & Making Ahead

Store completely cooled treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Perfect for prepping in advance to keep a healthy stash ready.
