Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1 cup brown sugar; packed
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp rum or coconut extract
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup candied dried pineapple; chopped
- 1/2 cup loose granola
- 1/4 cup macadamia nuts; chopped
- 1/4 cup large coconut flakes
Instructions
- Beat coconut oil and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer (or by hand) together until well combined. Keeping the motor running, add in eggs, then extract.
- Blend in flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well, scraping down the sides of the bowl as you go.
- Stir in pineapple, coconut, and macadamias. The dough will be quite stiff and you may need to do this by hand.
- Chill the dough for an hour.
- Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Evenly space dough by dropping it in heaped tablespoons onto parchment paper (12 cookies per sheet).
- Bake in a 350 F oven for 10-14 minutes. Remove and let cool on wire racks.
