Coconut Balls
“There is really no other way to say it: these dainty snack balls are simply divine, the kind of treat that is almost too good to be true. Perfectly sweet with a balanced all-natural flavor, they are buttery and melt-in-your-mouth delicious while bolstering all the health benefits of coconut. Blended with your choice of mineral rich natural sweetener and using organic, low temperature dehydrated coconut this recipe takes no more than 10 minutes to make and can easily be doubled…or tripled…or quadrupled….”
makes 9-10 balls
1-1.5 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1/4 cup raw honey or pure maple syrup
2 tbsp virgin coconut oil
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/8 tsp unrefined salt
“Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until well blended. Place mixture in parchment lined container and refrigerate for about one hour to set. Once mixture is firm, remove and roll into small snack balls. These can be easily stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks or in the freezer for the long-term. For storage, it is helpful to separate stacked layers of balls with parchment paper to prevent sticking. They will melt if left out for too long, so keep cool if you are on the go.”
