These vegan coconut macaroons (yes, macaroons not macarons) are delicious, packed with coconut flavour and super easy to make. And if you want a little something extra you can even add a few chocolate chips in the middle while you\u2019re scooping like I did with the one in the pictures. But you can also keep them plain if you\u2019d like, they\u2019re good either way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This recipe actually came about when I was making a coconut cake (recipe coming soon) and miscalculated the quantities. So i ended up with a batter as thick as cookie dough, but I decided to bake it anyway in little balls. And they came out delicious! After a bit of finessing, the recipe was complete and ready to be made time and time again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why make these vegan coconut macaroons?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

They\u2019re incredibly simple to make and there\u2019s no need to whip egg whites or aquafaba<\/strong>. It\u2019s just basic ingredients and some coconut milk, which is what enhnaces the coconut flavour even more in these. Besides that, it\u2019s just a matter of combining all the ingredients and then scooping away.
I\u2019ve always found coconut macaroons to be quite sweet so I\u2019ve also cut back on the sugar in these (*ahem* so I could eat more of them *ahem*). And honestly it makes them addictive since you don\u2019t get sugared out as fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Now these do contain some flour which I know is not typically called for in coconut macaroons. But since this recipe has coconut milk in it, it needs more binding power. You could replace the flour with your go-to gluten-free one, I don\u2019t see why it wouldn\u2019t work. Although, fair warning, I haven\u2019t tested it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
