(No-Bake) Coconut Lemon Meltaway Balls

(No-Bake) Coconut Lemon Meltaway Balls

Adapted from AddictedToVeggies

Ingredients

Makes about 30 balls

1 ½ cups almond flour

⅓ cup coconut flour

Pinch of salt

6 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (if using honey pick one with a mild taste)

4 tablespoons lemon juice

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Zest of one lemon

4 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

Directions

In a large bowl combine almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Set aside.

In a separate bowl combine maple syrup (or honey), lemon juice, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.

Using an electric mix slowly add the wet ingredients until fully combined. With the mixer on, gradually add coconut oil until it is blended in (it will look like crumbles but should be soft enough that if you squeeze it with your fingers it should stick together.)

Lightly oil your hands, then scoop one heaping teaspoon of coconut mixture and roll it into a ball.

Repeat to make 30 small balls. Roll them in shredded coconut flakes if you feel like.

Place coconut balls onto a lined baking sheet and transfer to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, until firm.

Keep stored in the refrigerator.
