Hi Madhuram,

I was just browsing for recipes when I came across yours. Which is not only easy, but absolutely delicious! I am allergic to gluten, so I substituted the flour with Brown Rice, Tapioca, and Potato flour, but still kept it one cup. Thanks so much for sharing this great recipe!

You’re welcome Saima. You should also try the gluten free chocolate chip cookies, it is absolutely delicious and no different from the usual chocolate chip cookies. Just make sure to use finely ground cornmeal. http://www.egglesscooking.com/2009/12/21/gluten-free-cookies-chocolate-chip/

I want to try this one…is it suitable for a baby baker like me…:) Or is it complicated to get the texture?

These were wonderful, I only had buckwheat honey so I used that. I find the buckwheast honey very strong but a great ingredient in these cookies!

I’m glad you liked these cookies, Heather.

Hi Madhuram
These cookies came out delicious.. instead of shredded coconut i used dessicated coconut powder..honey gave the cookies very nice flavour..now your coconut macaroons are next in my baking list

Thanks Rajeshwari.

I tried this recipe with some of the modifications you suggested to reduce the sweetness for those of us using sweetened coconut. The first time, I cut out the 2 tablespoons of honey and the resulting cookie dough was not moist enough, difficult to roll into balls and when I baked them, they didn’t spread at all! My sweet husband ate them anyway, but I insisted on redoing it (at 11pm). So the second time, I kept the honey but cut back on sugar to half a cup and the result was much much better (looked almost like your photo!) I think the honey is necessary to get the right batter consistency so for anyone else who is trying to cut down on sweetness, leave the honey in and just make changes in the amount of sugar used.

Thank you very much Catherine for trying the recipe the second time too and for recording your feedback here about the honey. It will be helpful to so many of us who want to try the recipe.

Hi Madhuram,
gotto give it to you – you always upload amazing recipes with nice photos! i find this to be an excellent post – the process is very simple, and the caloric value of the cookies is balanced by the addition of oats. my dad likes oats, so im going to make this for him

Thanks Yamini.
