Refrigerated to perfection, these bliss balls are low-fat, gluten-free, and irresistibly delicious!
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, unsweetened shredded coconut, and chia seeds. Stir well to mix the dry ingredients.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the coconut oil by microwaving for 10-15 seconds if solid. Allow to cool slightly.
Add honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and almond extract to the melted coconut oil. Mix until fully combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add salt and stir everything together until the mixture is uniform and starts to clump together.
Using your hands, take about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a tight ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
If desired, roll each ball in finely chopped almonds for an added crunchy texture.
Place the finished bliss balls on a tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Serve cold or at room temperature and enjoy the healthy, low-fat coconut almond bliss balls!
