Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 egg white
• 1 cup almond meal
• ⅓ cup coconut oil, melted
• 1 cup unsweetened coconut
• 1 teaspoon Himalayan sea salt
• ⅓ teaspoon stevia powder, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Combine coconut, almond meal, coconut oil, egg white, water, vanilla extract, Himalayan sea salt, and stevia powder in a large bowl. Let sit until coconut softens, about 10 minutes. Roll into generous tablespoon-sized balls; place on baking sheet. Flatten gently with a fork to prevent edges from crumbling.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
