Product Information

Also, you will need a food processor with the extension for grinding or an ordinary coffee grinder. While grinding coconut flakes in the electric grinder some of oils from coconut releases and you'll get a wet, dense mixture - something like the coconut butter. Because salt can have a stimulating effect on the body, Nutritionhelp generally recommends that sodium from cheap table salt should be kept low in the diet. You can leave it as it is or sprinkle it with a little sea salt– this will enhance the chocolate flavor.

For example, I didn't know that you can make coconut milk out of coconut flour at home. Or that there is a coconut oil you can cook with, or that you can replace all-purpose white flour with coconut flour in making cakes or bread.Dip the chilled balls into the melted chocolate. You can use a spoon, fork, or wooden skewers (so they look more like little cake pops) to help you dip them. Make sure to get the coconut completely covered in chocolate. Shredded coconut: I use unsweetened desiccated coconut for these chocolate coconut balls as it’s a lot easier to work with. You can buy these from the store or, if you’re feeling brave, make your own from fresh coconut. Place them on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. Chill them thoroughly in the fridge or freezer for at least 30 minutes.

Tip: This option for chocolate coconut cups is easier than rolling them into balls and dipping them in chocolate. Same yumminess! 1. Grind coconut in a food processor or blender. 2. Add coconut oil, honey and flavouring and process until it begins to clump together. 3. PInch the dough together to form small balls OR . . . 4. Pinch together into balls, then press firmly into a mini muffin cups. 5. If making balls, dip in melted chocolare. If making mini cups, top with melted chocolate and chill. Serving suggestionsThe main ingredient in these coconut balls is a superfood - coconut oil. Coconut oil is very healthy and if you still haven't incorporated it into your daily diet, DO IT! It helps in lowering bad cholesterol, improves the absorption of vitamins and minerals, has a positive effect on a blood sugar, and preserves the health of our heart. Also it strengthens the immune system and improves digestion and helps with weight loss.

Condensed Milk: Canned sweetened condensed milk works perfectly. If you’re vegan or don’t want to use condensed milk, you can use a mix of almond milk and sugar, evaporated milk, coconut milk, or even coconut condensed milk to help bind the balls together. For making these Healthy Coconut Bites you will need only 4 ingredients - shredded unsweetened coconut, coconut oil, honey and vanilla extract.You can leave it as it is or sprinkle it with a little sea salt – this will enhance the chocolate flavor. coconut oil: is also a must for this recipe as it hardens at room temperature. You'll also use a couple of teaspoons in the chocolate coating. And since I'm a huge fan of energy balls - Turmeric Energy Balls and Carrot Cake Ballsare my favorite, making these Healthy Coconut Bites was just natural thing to do when I rediscovered coconut.
