I love having healthier snacks in the house so when I get the urge to snack, I do not feel as guilty about eating. And it is even better when those snacks taste really delicious and are easy to make.
Raspberry Coconut Bites
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup coconut, plus more for rolling the bites in
- 1/2 cup frozen raspberries
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup almonds
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Cooking Directions
- In a food processor add the 3/4 cup coconut, raspberries, honey, craisins, almonds and peanut butter. Pulse the mixture until it is well mixed, scraping the bowl occasionally.
- Place some coconut into a shallow bowl.
- Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and stir in the mini chocolate chips. Using a tablespoon measure scoop out the mixture and roll it into a ball. Place the ball into the coconut and roll it around to cover it in coconut. Place the bite into a resealable container and refrigerate for at least an hour.
