Equipment You’ll Need
- Food processor or blender
- Mixing bowl
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Baking tray or plate for chilling
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons almond butter (or any keto-friendly nut butter)
- 1-2 tablespoons powdered erythritol (adjust to your sweetness preference)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for added flavor)
- 1 pinch salt
- Optional toppings: shredded coconut, crushed nuts, or unsweetened cocoa powder
Step-by-Step Procedure
- Prepare the Mixture
- In a food processor, combine the almond flour, shredded coconut, coconut oil, almond butter, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- Blend until the mixture reaches a dough-like consistency. If the mixture is too crumbly, add a bit more almond butter or a few drops of water until it holds together when pressed.
- Shape the Bliss Balls
- Scoop out about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a small ball. Repeat with the rest of the mixture until all the bliss balls are formed.
- Optional: Coat with Toppings
- Roll each bliss ball in shredded coconut, crushed nuts, or cocoa powder if you’d like some added flavor and texture.
- Chill the Bliss Balls
- Place the bliss balls on a baking tray or plate and refrigerate for at least 20-30 minutes to firm up.
- Serve and Enjoy
- Once chilled, enjoy your Keto Bliss Balls! Keep them in the fridge for a cool, tasty treat anytime.
