Unsweetened shredded coconut is lower in sugar.

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, nutmeg, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl.

In a separate bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in milk and vanilla extract until combined.

Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Fold in grated coconut gently until evenly distributed.

Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Allow to cool on a wire rack before serving.
