Ingredients

  • 90 grams (1 cup) desiccated coconut
  • 70 grams (¾ cup) almond flour replace with oat flour
  • 80 grams (⅓ cup) almond butter I recommend white almond butter, replace with cashew butter or sunflower seed butter
  • 30 grams (2 tbsp) coconut oil
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup more to taste, replace with honey

High Protein Coconut Balls

  • replace 50 grams (½ cup) of the almond flour with protein powder and adjust the dough with more nut butter (if dry) or almond flour (if sticky).

Instructions

  • Melt coconut oil.
  • In a large bowl, combine desiccated coconut with almond flour. Add melted coconut oil, almond butter and maple syrup, then stir well until you get a soft dough, first with a fork and then using your hands. If, after mixing, the dough is still too dry, add some more nut butter, or adjust with more almond flour if it is too sticky.
  • Shape some coconut balls, roll in more desiccated coconut and then place in an airtight food container or in a sealable bowl.
  • Store in the fridge for a maximum of five days.
