Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/4 cup sugar-free peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 2 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
- 1-2 tbsp low-carb sweetener (like stevia, erythritol, or monk fruit, adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1-2 tbsp water (optional, to adjust consistency)
Instructions:
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, shredded coconut, and salt. Stir until all dry ingredients are well mixed.
- Add the wet ingredients: To the dry mixture, add the peanut butter, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and low-carb sweetener. Stir until fully combined. The mixture should form a thick, dough-like consistency.
- Adjust the consistency: If the mixture is too dry or crumbly, add a small amount of water, one teaspoon at a time, until it reaches a dough-like consistency that can easily be rolled into balls.
- Form the bites: Roll the dough into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If you prefer, you can also shape them into small bars or squares. The dough should yield around 10-12 bites, depending on size.
- Chill: Place the keto bites on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
- Serve and enjoy: Once the bites are chilled and firm, they’re ready to eat! Enjoy them as a snack or a quick dessert.
Tips:
- Flavor variations: Add chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or a sprinkle of cinnamon to customize your bites to your liking.
- Storage: Store these keto bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. They can also be frozen for up to one month for longer storage.
- Sweetener options: Use your favorite low-carb sweetener in this recipe. Adjust the amount based on how sweet you like your bites.
