Nutty Coconut Fat Bombs
Calories 140kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups walnuts (or nut of choice)
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup coconut butter (or nut of choice)
- 2 tablespoons almond butter (or nut of choice)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons flax seed meal
- 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or nut of choice)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla beans (or nut of choice)
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons cacao nibs
Instructions
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine all of the ingredients except for the cacao nibs.
- Pulse for about 1-2 minutes, until the mixture starts to break down.
- It will first become powdery and will stick together, but still be crumbly.
- Keep processing until the oils start to release a bit and the mixture sticks together easily - just be careful not to over process or you’ll have nut butter.
- If your mixture seems dry and if you're not using the maple syrup, you may need the extra tablespoon of coconut butter to help it come together.
- Once the mixture is sticking together well, pulse in the cacao nibs, just to incorporate them.
- Use a small cookie scoop (I use this one) or or a tablespoon scoop to divide the mixture into equal pieces.
- Use your hands to roll into balls and place on a plate.
- If desired, make the chocolate drizzle by melting the chocolate and coconut oil together in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until it’s completely melted.
- Drizzle over the balls and place in the fridge or freezer to firm up.
- Store in an airtight container zip-top bag in the refrigerator or freezer.
