Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams unsweetened coconut flakes
- 100 grams almond flour
- 100 grams coconut cream
- 60 ml maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 20 pieces whole almonds
- 50 grams extra unsweetened coconut flakes
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine 150 grams of unsweetened coconut flakes with 100 grams of almond flour.
Add 100 grams of coconut cream, 60 ml of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until the mixture is smooth and can easily be rolled into balls.
Set the mixture aside in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to firm up slightly.
Once the mixture is firm, take approximately a tablespoon of the mixture in your hand, flatten it slightly, and place one whole almond in the center.
Carefully roll the mixture around the almond, forming a ball. Ensure the almond is completely covered. Repeat this process with the remaining mixture and almonds.
Spread 50 grams of extra unsweetened coconut flakes on a plate.
Roll each prepared ball in the coconut flakes, ensuring they are fully coated.
Store the coconut almond balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow them to firm up further.
Enjoy your Vegan Homemade Raffaello Coconut Almond Balls as a delightful treat!
