Raw coconut snowballs

This recipe is originally from Alpro that I first made in last Christmas. Since then I’ve been addicted to it!

These coconut snowballs are so delicious, fluffy, coconutty – and super simple to make. Not to mention the recipe is low-carb, no refined sugar, gluten-free, nut-free… almost free from everything. They make a perfect allergy-friendly treat for the whole year around.

Let’s start…

Raw coconut snowballs

First, melt the coconut butter (I use Biona coconut bliss) in a bowl of hot water. This may be unnecessary if you live in a hot region.

Put 10g of the desiccated coconut to one side.

Then place the rest into a small food processor with the other ingredients, then blend for 2-3 minutes until the mixture resembles a thick paste.

Scoop out approximately 2 tablespoons of the paste and roll into a 2-3 cm ball.

The paste can be a bit fluffy now, but if you push and knead it a bit at a time, then little by little, you should start to form a ball shape.

Roll the ball gently in the remaining desiccated coconut until well coated.

Repeat this process until all of the paste has been used. You should get around 12-15 balls.

Refrigerate for 1 hour and serve. Balls can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

It’s super simple, right?

The coconut snowballs are so creamy, coconutty and so pretty to look at that it’s heavenly for the coconut lover! It’s a great holiday snack to share with your loved ones, or to enjoy as a lazy afternoon, self-indulgent treat with coffee or tea.

This recipe was created for Veahero, a cool new (free!) meal planning platform for vegans and vegetarians.

Hi, I haven’t made this yet, but I was wondering, is it possible to replace the coconut butter with coconut flower ? Or quick oats ? Thank you!
