No Bake Coconut Cookies Coconut Delights – paleo, vegan, low carb, keto, AIP
These vegan No Bake Coconut Cookies come together super quick and are loaded with healthy ingredients. Plus they're paleo and sugar-free too!
THE RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
- 3 cups organic unsweetened shredded coconut
- 3/8 cup organic coconut oil
- 1/2 cup xylitol
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 3/8 tsp salt
- Homemade Chocolate / Carob Chips (melted for drizzle)
- Coconut shreds
- Finely-chopped nuts
INSTRUCTIONS
- Put all ingredients in a food processor or blender.
- Combine until the mixture is blended and sticks together. (Note: if you are using a high-powered blender like a Vitamix, do not turn your machine on high. You will likely end up with Coconut Butter. While it will be delicious, it won't be these no-bake cookies.
- Remove the mixture from the blender / food processor and form into desired shape. I really like the cute little shapes I was able to make with this little cookie scoop. I had a little trouble with the "balls" falling apart but just gently press them back into the desired shape.
- Decorate with shredded coconut, cocoa or carob powder, crushed nuts, or melted chocolate (I used my Homemade Chocolate OR Carob Chips, piped from a plastic baggie with a tiny hole cut in the corner) as desired. Or leave them plain. They are great just as is (but I do think a little coconut sprinkled on top adds a nice touch.
- Leave to firm up on a plate. They will firm up at room temperature.
- You really don't need to store these in the fridge but I think they taste a tad bit better cold.
