1. 1If using hazlenuts, ground the nuts into flour before combining all of the dry ingredients together.
2. 2Mix the wet ingredients honey/maple syrup, coconut oil, cacao butter and water in another bowl before mixing them with the dry ingredients.
3. 3Place the dough in the fridge for around 30 minutes. This will make it easier to form the cookies and itll improve the texture of them. This step can be skipped if you're in a hurry, just know that the texture might be slightly different.
4. 4Preheat oven to 170 degress Celcius (app. 345 Fahrenheit)
5. 5Align a baking tray with parchment paper and scoop out one tablespoon of dough for each cookie. Form the dough into a cookie. Use your fingers or the back of a fork to press the cookie slightly flatter.
6. 6Bake the cookies for 18 minutes. The cookies should be slightly golden. They will still be soft while they are in the oven, but they will harden up slightly once cooled.
7. 7Cool the cookies on a wire and store in airtight container.
