Equipment

  • Mealthy Crisplid

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried unsweetened coconut largest pieces you can find
  • 1 tbsp Bragg Liquid Aminos or soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 1/2 tsp liquid smoke
  • 1/2 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a medium bowl and toss to coat.
  • Line Mealthy Crisplid basket with parchment paper and spread mixture out evenly on top. Place the lid on top, fold handle down, and set to air fry for 5 minutes at 350ºF.
  • Open and stir every minute and a half. Watch carefully! It can burn quickly. It took about 5 minutes total using the Mealthy Crisplid. If you use another air fryer, your timing may be different.

Notes

Oven instructions: Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spread mixture out on a parchment covered baking sheet. Bake around 12 minutes, stirring at the halfway mark. Watch carefully the last 6 minutes so they don't burn.
Serving size is about 1 tablespoon.
