Description
Coconut Bliss Balls are a delicious and healthy treat made with shredded coconut, almond flour, and sweetened with maple syrup, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (optional, for coating)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, almond flour, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until well combined and a sticky mixture forms.
- Refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
- Once chilled, use your hands to form small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- If using chocolate, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Dip each coconut ball into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off, then return them to the baking sheet.
- Place the baking sheet back in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to set the chocolate.
- Enjoy your Coconut Bliss Balls chilled or at room temperature!
Notes
- For a tropical twist, add 1/4 cup crushed pineapple to the mixture before chilling.
- Substitute almond flour with oat flour for a gluten-free option.
