Ingredients

• 2 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup Coconut cream
• 0.75 cup Erythritol sweetener
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the coconut cream and erythritol sweetener. Stir continuously until the sweetener dissolves completely, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and salt to the saucepan. Mix everything together until the coconut is fully coated with the sweetened cream.

Step 4

Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently until the mixture begins to thicken slightly.

Step 5

Remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes until it is comfortable to handle.

Step 6

Use a spoon to scoop out small mounds of the coconut mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the edges of the cocadas start to turn golden brown.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Once cooled, store the Keto Cocadas in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
