Ingredients

• 2 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseeds
• 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Stevia or monk fruit sweetener
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 oz Sugar-free dark chocolate
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
• 12 pieces Sugar-free chocolate-coated almonds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the shredded coconut, almond flour, and ground flaxseeds.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil and stir in the vanilla extract, cinnamon powder, and salt until combined.

Step 4

Add the melted mixture to the coconut and almond flour mixture along with the stevia or monk fruit sweetener. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Step 5

Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl, then add them to the coconut mixture, mixing until the dough holds together.

Step 6

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and form into a nest shape using your fingers or the back of a spoon. Repeat until you've used all the dough, forming about 12 nests.

Step 7

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the nests are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 8

Meanwhile, melt the sugar-free dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, stirring frequently. If needed, add unsweetened almond milk to reach a smooth consistency.

Step 9

Once the nests have cooled, fill each nest with a small amount of melted chocolate, then place a sugar-free chocolate-coated almond in the center.

Step 10

Allow the chocolate to set before serving. Enjoy your sugar-free bird's nests as a delightful treat!
