Dry Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, and shredded coconut until well combined.

Mixing

  1. 3

    Cream Butter and Sugar

    In another bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract until fully combined.

  3. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

  4. 6

    Fold in Pineapple

    Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Baking

  1. 7

    Scoop the Dough

    Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

  2. 8

    Bake the Cookies

    Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The cookies will appear soft but will firm up as they cool.

  3. 9

    Cool the Cookies

    Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
