Ingredients
  

1 cup raw almonds

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 cup almond butter

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (for drizzling, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Nuts: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the raw almonds onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast them in the oven for about 10-12 minutes or until they become fragrant and slightly golden. Let them cool before using.

    Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the roasted almonds, shredded coconut, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), sea salt, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using). Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and form a sticky mixture.

      Form the Bites: Using your hands, take small amounts of the mixture (about 1-2 tablespoons) and roll them into bite-sized balls. Place the formed bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

        Chill: Once all the mixture is shaped into bites, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.

          Drizzle with Chocolate (optional): If you want to add a chocolatey touch, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth. Drizzle over the chilled bites using a fork.

            Serve and Enjoy: Once set, serve your Crunchy Almond Coconut Bites as a healthy snack or dessert. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
