THREE STEPS TO DELICIOUS

Yummy recipes from just 3 ingredients. This week:

1 MEDIUM RIPE BANANA

+

2 TBSP MAPLE SYRUP

+

120G DESICCATED COCONUT

= COCONUT COOKIES MAKES 10

PREHEAT the oven to 180c (fan 160c) and line a large baking sheet with greaseproof paper. In a small bowl, mash the banana with the maple syrup. Put the coconut into a food processor and blitz for a couple of minutes — you want the flakes to be as small as possible to help the cookies come together. Add the coconut to the mashed banana mixture and stir them to combine. Use dessert spoons to space out blobs of the mixture on the baking sheet, leaving a good few inches between them. Lightly grease the underside of a glass or tumbler and press it down gently on each blob, flattening the cookies to around 1cm. Bake for 15 minutes in the centre of the oven, rotating the tray halfway through. Leave to cool completely on the tray. These can be stored in an airtight tin for three to four days.
