Chewy, coconut-packed, and gently sweet, these little mounds prove that keeping it low-carb does not mean giving up dessert. Unsweetened coconut and monk fruit stand in for the usual sugar, while a splash of almond extract adds that bakery-shop fragrance. They bake up golden in about twenty minutes and satisfy a sweet tooth without the sugar crash, making them a smart treat to keep on hand.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 Cups Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
- 2 Large Egg Whites
- 1/3 Cup Monk Fruit Sweetener (or Erythritol)

Directions
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine coconut, powdered monk fruit, and salt.
- Stir in egg whites, sugar-free condensed milk (or cream cheese), vanilla, and almond extract (if using)
- Mix until all of the coconut is evenly coated. The mixture should be moist enough to hold together when squeezed.
- Using a small cookie scoop or two tablespoons, form compact mounds and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops and edges are lightly golden.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
