Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, unsweetened shredded coconut, coconut sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until well combined.
If desired, fold in chopped nuts and dried fruit to add extra texture and flavor.
Using a tablespoon, scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of the spoon as these cookies do not spread much during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store cookies in an airtight container for up to one week.
