Coconut Recipes Healthy Recipe For Banana

2-INGREDIENT BANANA COCONUT COOKIES | HEALTHY SNACK RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicon liner.
• Add bananas to a bowl and mash with a fork until smooth (no lumps). One of my tricks to getting things extra creamy and smooth is to use a handheld immersion blender (see recipe video).
• Once banana is mashed and smooth, add the shredded coconut. Mix with a fork then use your hands to make sure the coconut is fully incorporated into the banana. **Add a pinch of sea salt (optional).
• Separate mixture into 8 equal parts. Roll the mixture into a tight ball then flatten into a cookie shape (about 1/2 inch thick) and place onto the baking sheet. Repeat this process until you've formed 8 cookies.
• Bake cookies for 20-25 minutes or until tops are golden. **It took mine exactly 22 minutes. Once done, transfer cookies to a cooling rack and let cool completely before serving. ENJOY!!

BANANA COCONUT MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If necessary, grease all 12 cups of your muffin tin with butter or muffin liners (my pan is non-stick and didn't require any grease).
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, salt and lemon zest. Stir in 1/2 cup of the shredded coconut.
• In a separate, medium bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, coconut oil, honey, egg and vanilla.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups (a scant 1/4 cup batter each), then sprinkle the muffin tops with the remaining 1/4 cup shredded coconut. Sprinkle the tops with the raw sugar.
• Bake for about 17 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Transfer muffins to a cooling rack and let them cool.

3-INGREDIENT BANANA, RASPBERRY AND COCONUT "ICE CREAM"

Steps:

• Peel the bananas and cut into 1-inch pieces. Freeze until completely solid, preferably overnight.
