- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, toss coconut flakes with sugar and salt until evenly coated.
- Spread coconut flakes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 5-7 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown. Watch closely to prevent burning.
