Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 0.25 cup Optional chocolate chips or drizzle (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded coconut, honey, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Stir the mixture until well combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed between your fingers. If it feels too crumbly, add a tiny bit more honey until it reaches the desired consistency.
Using your hands, scoop about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a small ball. Repeat this step for the rest of the mixture.
Place the coconut bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate.
Chill the coconut bites in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
If desired, melt chocolate chips and drizzle over the chilled coconut bites for added sweetness and flair.
Store the Honey Coconut Bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
