Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 1 third-cup Almond butter
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, shredded coconut, and chia seeds. Stir well to distribute evenly.
In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, gently warm the almond butter until softened for easier mixing, about 20–30 seconds in the microwave or on low heat on the stove.
Add the warmed almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt to the dry ingredients. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and form a sticky dough-like consistency.
If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips for added flavor and sweetness.
Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, scoop out portions of the mixture and shape them into small, rounded mounds. Place the macaroons onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Cover the tray tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 6 hours, to allow the flavors to meld and the macaroons to firm up.
Once chilled and set, enjoy the macaroons straight from the fridge or transfer them to an airtight container for storage. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
