Coconut Treats




Source of Recipe


Tropical Traditions


List of Ingredients




/8 cup chopped nuts (almonds or pecans are good) (optional)

2 teaspoons unsweetened coconut flakes; 4-5 teaspoons if rolling in coconut flakes

1 tablespoon coconut oil; melted or softened if hard

1 teaspoon ground flax seeds

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 – 1/2 teaspoon stevia (sweeten to taste)

1/4 teaspoon almond extract

1/8 teaspoon Himalayan salt



Recipe



Set the chopped nuts and 2-3 teaspoons of the coconut flakes aside, if rolling the coconut balls in the mixture. Or you may combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Form the mixture into a shape similar to a flattened macaroon and freeze. The ingredients freeze in about 5 minutes. The coconut treat will pop right out of the bowl and you can eat it like a cookie. Or you can divide the ingredients into two or three small balls. Mix together the chopped nuts and remaining coconut flakes on a flat plate and roll the balls in the mixture; freeze for at least 5 minutes.
