Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1 cup almond flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder (optional)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional shredded coconut for rolling (optional)
Chopped nuts or seeds for added texture (optional)
Dairy-free chocolate chips for drizzling or mixing in (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: shredded coconut, almond flour, cocoa powder, and sea salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until a sticky dough forms.
Using your hands, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
If desired, roll each ball in additional shredded coconut or chopped nuts.
Refrigerate the baking sheet for about 30 minutes to firm up the bites.
After chilling, your Coconut Bliss Bites are ready to enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
