Giant Cranberry Cookies

These giant morsels of awesome are somewhere between a giant cookie and a scone- perfect for breakfast, snacks, dessert, or just because. They are not too sweet and wonderfully coconutty, with just a hint of cranberry. Best of all, these are really easy!



Giant Cranberry Cookies
Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
4 eggs
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract, optional
3/4 cup craisins

2 cups almond flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 scant teaspoon salt
1/4 cup craisins
1/2 cup flaked coconut

Method
Preheat oven to 325°

Combine the first seven ingredients in the bowl of a food processor- blend until pureed.

In a second bowl, mix together the last five ingredients. Add the craisin paste, mix well.

On parchment lined pan, place 1/4 cup scoops of batter 2-3 inches apart. Bake for 20 minutes, cool for 2-3 minutes before removing to a cooling rack. You could also make these a more traditional cookie size. To do that, place about 1 1/2 tablespoons of batter a couple inches apart, and bake at 350° for about 10 minutes or until done. Either way, Enjoy!
