• ½ cup chopped almonds (or walnuts)

• ½ cup shredded coconut (optional)

• ½ tsp baking soda

• ½ tsp cinnamon powder

• Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

Optional Add-Ins

• ¼ cup dark chocolate chips

2. In a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients together.

3. In another bowl, whisk wet ingredients until smooth.

4. Combine wet and dry mixtures. Stir until a thick dough forms.

5. Scoop spoonfuls onto the baking tray and flatten slightly.
