Course: Side Dish, Topping
Cuisine: American
Servings: 2 cups
- 2 cups coconut flakes unsweetened
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/3 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp liquid smoke
Preheat the oven to 180℃/350℉. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add all the ingredients in a bowl, and mix well. Spread the coconut flakes onto the baking sheet evenly.
Bake for 12~15 minutes, flipping half way. Keep a close eye on them while baking, as they can burn easily.
Once the flakes are golden brown and slightly burnt on the edges, they are done. Let them cool completely before serving. They will get even crispier as they cool. Enjoy!
