Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut (fine)
- 1 cup almond flour (fine and blanched)
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp matcha powder (culinary grade)
- 1/4 cup vegan plain milk
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is uniform and there are no clumps remaining. This ensures even flavor throughout the balls.
- Chill the Mixture: Transfer the combined mixture to the fridge and let it rest for at least 20 minutes. This allows the chia seeds to absorb moisture and helps the mixture firm up for easier rolling.
- Roll into Balls: After chilling, use an ice cream scoop or your hands to roll the mixture into approximately 15 equal-sized balls. Consistent sizing helps with portion control and presentation.
- Optional Coating: The balls can be eaten as is or rolled in additional toppings like shredded coconut, chia seeds, coconut sugar, or cacao nibs for extra texture and flavor.
Notes
- For best results, use fine, blanched almond flour to ensure a smooth texture.
- Adjust the amount of maple syrup for sweetness preference.
- Store the coconut balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
- You can substitute vegan plain milk with any plant-based milk of your choice.
- These balls make an excellent on-the-go snack or quick dessert option.
