Healthy Coconut Recipes

From coconut macaroon recipes to coconut ice cream recipes, delicious and healthy recipes with coconut.
Coconut is a sweet addition to many healthy breakfast recipes, snack recipes and dessert recipes. In our healthy coconut recipes, we often choose unsweetened coconut to take advantage of the health benefits of coconut without the added sugar. A two-by-two inch piece of raw coconut is jammed with 4 grams of fiber (16 percent of your daily dose) and is low in sugar and carbs. (But before you eat it with abandon, keep in mind that it’s also packed with calories.) Coconut adds depth of flavor and sweetness to our coconut cookie recipes, coconut macaroon recipes, coconut ice cream recipes and more healthy coconut recipes. Try our Cranberry Coconut Trifle for your next holiday dessert or Almond-Coconut Cookies for a healthier coconut cookie recipe.


Cranberry Coconut Trifle
No other dessert turns heads like a trifle. Festive in every way, this trifle recipe glows from within with scarlet layers of juicy cranberries. The filling is made from an astounding 6 cups of antioxidant-packed cranberries! We made the custard “skinny” with a combination of low-fat milk and light coconut milk. From-scratch brown-butter sponge cake, made with whole-wheat pastry flour, stands in for store-bought ladyfingers.....


Almond-Coconut Cookies
It’s quick and easy to mix together these slice-and-bake almond-coconut cookies whenever you need something sweet. The recipe makes enough dough so you can bake half and put the other half in the freezer—ready to pull out and bake up a few fresh cookies anytime....


Coconut Soufflé
Sweet, shredded coconut and coconut extract flavor this delicate coconut dessert soufflé recipe.......
