No Bake Coconut Balls (Matcha + Chocolate) Recipe

By Peanut Palate

🔪Prep Time: 10 mins

👩‍🍳Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

For the Chocolate Dough

⅓ cup shredded coconut

⅓ cup raw almonds

⅓ cup raw pecans

1 cup Mejool dates

2 tbsp cacao powder

2 tbsp cacao nibs optional

Pinch salt

For the Matcha Dough

1 cup shredded coconut

⅓ cup raw almonds

1 cup Mejool dates

1 tbsp matcha powder

⅛ tsp vanilla extract

Pinch salt

Instructions

1Blend together all ingredients for the matcha dough. Once it is fully mixed with no chunks of dates/nuts inside, scrape it out of the blender and set aside in a bowl.

2Repeat the same thing with the chocolate dough ingredients.

3Once both doughs are done, choose the core filling – either matcha or chocolate. Take the flavor you want for the inside, and shape the dough into balls. Then pat the second flavor around the first to make a larger ball. You can make half of them with a chocolate core and half matcha core, if desired.

4Enjoy! Store at room temperature.

I’ve never been good at introductions because when they’re needed, I seem to forget every single interesting thing about myself. But I guess we’ll start with the basics. My name is Maria, and I am a twenty year old student from England. I study history at the University of Oxford and live in Brighton, but I was born in Russia and moved to the UK around ten years ago. I’m a vegan foodie (as you can probably tell by this blog), a lover of long walks and somewhere awkwardly between extrovert and introvert. Veganism and healthy eating are a huge part of my life, given that both have helped me overcome an unhealthy relationship with food. Finding balance took a lot of time and patience. But, as with many things in life, hard work proved 110% worth it! Whenever I’m not in the kitchen or working in my room, you’ll often find me at the gym, or at the grocery store looking for inspo for my next recipe.
