Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup coconut oil, melted Use refined coconut oil for a neutral flavor or unrefined for a subtle coconut taste.
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed Dark brown sugar will add a richer flavor.
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar This sweetens without overwhelming the flavor.
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.
Dry Ingredients
