These coconut macaroons have only three ingredients and are super simple to make. Perfect for those who are the true coconut lovers. These cookies are crunchy on the outside and chewy in the middle.

The great thing about these macaroons is that they don’t contain any flour. In this recipe I made basic macaroons with no additional flavors, but of course you can make many variations. For example use some cocoa powder or cocoa nibs, nuts, lime, orange and so on. try out what you like.
