- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams Walnuts, finely chopped
- 150 grams Unsweetened shredded coconut
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until they become foamy but not stiff.
Step 3
Gradually add granulated sugar to the egg whites while continuing to whisk, until the mixture is glossy and forms soft peaks.
Step 4
Sift the powdered sugar into the bowl and gently fold it into the egg whites using a spatula.
Step 5
Add the ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to the mixture, and fold carefully until combined.
Step 6
Gently mix in the chopped walnuts and shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Using a small cookie scoop or two teaspoons, drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
