Johnny's Coconut-nut-nut Cookies

TOOLS YOU'LL NEED:
  • Food processor (or something to smash nuts with, like a brick)
  • Dehydrator

INGREDIENTS YOU'LL NEED:
  • Coconut shavings (dried and unsweetened), 1/2 Cup
  • Pecans (crushed into bits), 4 Tbsp
  • Walnuts, 3/4 Cup
  • Agave Syrup, 5 Tbsp
  • Coconut Oil, 1 Tbsp
  • Cinnamon, 1 Tbsp (vary to taste, I love cinnamon)
  • Almond Flour, 1 Tbsp
  • Water, 3 Tbsp

STEP 1: Go Nuts!
  1. Smash your Pecans up and set them aside.
  2. Put the Coconut Shavings, Walnuts, Almond Flour, Cinnamon, 4 Tbsp Agave, and 3 Tbsp of Water in the food processor and blend.
  3. I recommend only putting the Water in 1 Tbsp at a time, and stop if it appears watery.
