Eggless Coconut cookies recipe with stepwise instructions. They are crunchy from out, soft from within and just melts in your mouth. This is no butter eggless coconut cookie recipe. Instead of butter have used organic coconut oil but you could use butter if you wish to.
I have used desiccated coconut powder for this recipe. Also due to the addition of bananas they taste more flavorful also a great combination. In India many sweets are made combining banana and coconut hence thought of adding bananas with coconut.
This cookie recipe is quite a different recipe. Keep experimenting and this recipe is the outcome of that. We love bananas in our dessert. Also, make these cookies quite often they are quite addictive.
Further, I have topped them with almond and cashews but it’s optional. I love baking cookies as they are easier and consume less time then cakes or any other dessert. Also, the best part is you could keep the cookie dough in the freezer and use them for later use.
Even kids would love these cookies. If you have cholesterol problems then just limit to one or two cookies as dry coconut as high cholesterol. So be careful while indulging in them. I had a bunch of them 🙂

Thanks for sharing this recipe Maria. I made them following all the measurements accurately. It was really tasty but a little dense. Do I add a little milk to the dough next time?
maria says
Bindu thanks for positive feedback, glad you liked the coconut cookies, yes you may add little milk and let me know 🙂

Hey, can I use fresh grated coconut instead of the dessicated coconut powder?
maria says
Sharrianne fresh grated coconut would add moisture and change the consistency so take care while baking. Hope this help’s you.

Anand instead of bananas you could use condensed milk for this recipe. Also instead of brown-sugar you could use granulated sugar or caster sugar. Hope this help’s you.
