I adapted this recipe from ohsheglows.com.
Here is the original recipe.
I wanted a sugar-free, oil-free recipe so I made some changes to the original recipe which included maple syrup and coconut oil. Instead I used date spread/paste and I added one additional banana to add some sweetness. I also doubled the original recipe so that there would be enough for a big crowd.
Yields 24 macaroons
- 3 small very ripe bananas, finely mashed
- 1 cup date spread/paste
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut, large flakes
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, small flakessmall pinch of fine grain sea salt, to taste
Mash the bananas very well, or blend up in food processor so that they are very creamy. Mix in date paste, and cocoa powder. Once well blended, mix in coconut.
Place spoonfuls on a parchment lined cookie sheet, and freeze until firm. Transfer to an airtight container and store in freezer until you're ready to serve.
