Ingredients
  

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or a dairy-free alternative)

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (for topping)

Fresh fruit (such as blueberries, mango, or kiwi) for optional garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened shredded coconut, almond flour, and rolled oats. Stir the dry ingredients together until well mixed.

      Combine with Wet Ingredients: Add in the honey or maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until they form a cohesive, slightly sticky mixture.

        Shape the Cookies: Using a tablespoon, scoop portions of the mixture onto the lined baking sheet, flattening them slightly to form round shapes. Press them gently with your hands or the back of a spoon to ensure they hold their shape while baking.

          Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown. Keep a close watch to prevent them from over-baking.

            Cool the Cookies: Once baked, remove the cookie rounds from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

              Prepare the Yogurt Layer: While the cookies are cooling, take a bowl and mix the plain Greek yogurt with sweetener to taste, stirring until it reaches a smooth consistency.

                Assemble the Cookies: Once the cookie rounds are completely cooled, generously spread a layer of the sweetened yogurt on top of each cookie using a knife or spatula.

                  Add Coconut and Fruit: Sprinkle the additional shredded coconut over the yogurt-topped cookies, adding a delightful texture. For a burst of fresh flavor, top with your choice of fresh fruits.

                    Freeze: Arrange the decorated cookies back on the baking sheet and place them in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until the yogurt has set and is firm.

                      Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, serve these Tropical Bliss Frozen Yogurt Coconut Cookie Rounds chilled for a refreshing treat perfect for warm days!
