- 2 eggs
- 80 g / 2.82 oz sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

How To Make It
Step 1: We begin preparing our coconut bites by adding the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract to a bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat for 3 minutes, then add the shredded coconut and flour and mix with a whisk until you have a smooth batter.
Step 2: Take a portion of the dough, shape it into a circle, and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat this process until all the coconut dough is used up. Bake at 180ºC/350ºF for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 3: Remove from the oven and let cool for a couple of minutes, then serve on a plate, sprinkle with a little powdered sugar, add a little dulce de leche, and your easy and delicious coconut bites are ready to enjoy.
Tips To Prepare It
You can find shredded coconut at any supermarket.
Once you take the coconut bites out of the oven, let them cool for 5 minutes.
You can substitute brown sugar for white sugar, but keep in mind that the final color and flavor may vary slightly.
Make sure to place the coconut bites on the baking sheet so that there is enough space between them for air to circulate.
You can adjust the size of the coconut bites to your liking, but keep in mind that the baking time may vary slightly depending on the size.
