These recipes are 100% made out of natural ingredients, usually not more than 5.

So here are the ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp of sweetener (I used monk fruit extract)
  • 2 tbsp of water
  • 2 cups of almond flour
  • 1 tbsp almond extract
  • 1 tbsp of vanilla extract

For toppings:

  • coconut flakes
  • hemp hearts
  • cinnamon
  • cocoa powder

imageDirections:

  1. Mix the 2 tbsp of sweetener with the 2 tbsp of water
  2. add the almond extract and the vanilla extract
  3. add the 2 cups of almond flour
  4. mix them well
  5. form little balls
  6. roll them in the toppings you prefer (coconut, cacao, chocolate, hemp hearts, chia seeds)
