Line a large baking sheet(s) with parchment paper or a baking mat. In a medium bowl combine the egg, the bananas, the pineapple and the vanilla. Whisk to blend. Add the flour, the coconut, the baking powder and the salt. Mix to blend. Stir in the nuts. Drop tablespoonfuls of dough, 2-inches apart, on the prepared baking sheet(s). Bake until lightly browned, about 10 - 12 minutes. Remove from rack and cool on pan(s) for 10 minutes. Transfer cookies to a rack and cool completely. Store in a tightly covered container. Notes: These cookies get their sweetness from the crushed pineapple and banana. There is NO added sugar. about 24 cookies tamaras_sweet_treats/ Need some new desserts? ______ PeoplePC Online A better way to Internet http://www.peoplepc.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
