Hi Everyone!
Today is rainy and a bit chili so I decided to try the coconut cookies again. This time I followed the package direction to the tee. OMG! Who ever wrote these instructions obviously didn't prof it.
When all of the ingredients are mixed and the chocolate chips added the dough is supposed to be thick enough to make a ball in your hands.
Uhhhh no way.
This dough is very wet. No way to roll it into balls.I added 5T one at a time of APF. That made it thick enough to roll and mash down with a glass. They came out a lot better than the first try. However, I still don't like them. I will have to play around with the coconut flour mixing it with other flours. The sugar seems to be fine.
I write my posts the day before. So, today is Tuesday and what is best for dinner on Tuesdays? You got itTostadas!
Homemade refried beans, ground beef, cheese, onions, tomatoes, lettuce and avocado on the side.
That's it for now.
Have a great day.

That salad looks good (as you know, I´m not into sweet thing ;-)...)
Baking no longer occurs in this domicile.
I have never trusted the recipes at the back of package. They usually suck big time. I find mixing coconut flour with other gluten free flour for baked goods gets better result.
...dinner looks GREAT!
The salad looks very appealing. A slice of avocado can do wonders!
Great recipe Nicole. I'll give it a try.
Almond flour and coconut flour are very different to ordinary flours, it may be worthwhile having a look at some of the very helpful guides available on the internet... but happy baking.
I do like the look of your dinner :)
All the best Jan
Yum, yum
Have a good day
Thanks for dropping by my blog
Much love
Oh so glad the cookies came out to your liking ~
That salad sounds and looks delish! ~ Hugs ^_^
Your salad looks refreshing.
The salad looks delicious, the cookies very good!
it's too hot here to turn the oven on right now. I hope you find a recipe that makes good cookies. That tostada looks good.
The tostada looks delicious!
Uno de mis postres favoritos!!!!! Un abrazo y buen apetito, Nicole.
It all looks delicious! I have found coconut flour difficult to bake with as well I usually add a little to my gluten free flour if I want to bake with it
That's a shame to waste all the ingredients for the cookies. I would find a new recipe. Your salad looks really good.
Dear Nichole
Sorry for coconut cookies did not went as expected,yet they look delicious
To be honest directions on the packaging rarely come across as good as expected 😏
Your dinner plate looks so good and healthy
Hope you are enjoying cool weather my friend, back in our southern city heat is extreme but here in Islamabad it’s better thankfully
Heartfelt love and prayers to you and yours ♥️🙏
That looks delish!
You are determined. I would have washed my hands of the whole cookie thing.
Looks great your salad. Unfortunately, my husband can't have avocado too much potassium as he struggles to keep it from being high.
Those biscuits are a problem but you will get there, as
I have read between the lines and your determination comes through, Nicole.
Coconut flour is unique, in that after adding the liquid ingredients, it needs ro sit (rest) for about ten minutes. During this time it absorbs some of the liquid. Most recipes fail to mention that.
But I will say that even knowing it, I have limited luck with coconut flour. I can use almond flour, so that is my go to flour for baking. But I always use a recipe with it a few times before I make any changes.
No that dough does not look like you can roll it. They still look tasty and I hope you get the recipe fixed soon.
It's always so disappointing when a recipe is a fail -- although at least they were better than before. I remember when I was part of a group doing a cookbook. After the recipes were narrowed down, every recipe had to be prepared and tested six times by different cooks and rated (that version) by a group of six or more on some specific qualities. I've never had a recipe from that cookbook fail.
Beautiful blog
Esses bolinhos de coco, de certeza que vão bem, num dia frio, com uma reconfortante chávena de chá quente.
Abraço de amizade.
