Ingredients
- 200 grams Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 50 grams Almond flour
- 100 milliliters Coconut cream
- 50 grams Erythritol sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 20 pieces Raw almonds, blanched
- 30 grams Coconut oil
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the unsweetened shredded coconut, almond flour, erythritol sweetener, and a pinch of salt into a food processor. Pulse until it's well mixed and the texture is fine.
Step 2
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Add the coconut cream and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Pour the melted mixture from the saucepan into the food processor with the other dry ingredients. Blend everything together until it forms a thick, consistent paste.
Step 4
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a teaspoon-size scoop, take a bit of the paste and flatten it slightly in your palm.
Step 5
Place one blanched almond in the middle of the flattened paste and enclose it by rolling it into a ball. Ensure the almond is fully covered.
Step 6
Roll the ball in additional shredded coconut to coat the outside, giving it a beautiful, snowy appearance.
Step 7
Repeat the process with the remaining mixture and almonds until all ingredients are used.
Step 8
Once all balls are formed, place them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
Step 9
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy your low-carb homemade Raffaello candies!
