In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar, oil, and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and shredded coconut, then add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix well until a dough forms.
Shape the dough into a ball and roll it out with a rolling pin. Cut out the cookies using your favorite shapes, transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 12 to 14 minutes.
The cookies are ready — enjoy.
Notes
Keep the dough in the same simple mixing order as the original recipe.
Use 350°F as the natural English adaptation of 180°C.
Unsweetened shredded coconut is the clearest US-friendly equivalent here.
A neutral oil is the best interpretation of the original ingredient list.
Bake until lightly golden at the edges for the best texture.
Do not change the three-step structure when publishing the adapted recipe.
