Raw Peanut Butter Coconut Bites

Free of grain, dairy, and refined sugar, these little Raw Peanut Butter Coconut Bites are an easy and nutritious snack you’ll be sure to want more of!

Easy peasy goodness.

If you follow this blog with any regularity, you’ve probably noticed that there are only a few things I truly love more than chocolate – two of them happen to be in these tasty little bites.

Yep, you guessed it: peanut butter and coconut.

Mixed together in a soft, chewy bite of healthy goodness, these little guys (or girls?) are hard to resist. I was going to save some of them for later…

Yeah… that didn’t happen. 😉

Snacks galore!

If you think these are great (and you’d be right in thinking so), you’d probably also like the chocolate version. I know, I couldn’t resist. Everything good tastes better with chocolate added.

You should probably also check out the scrumptious little eBook these Raw Peanut Butter Coconut Bites have been included in – Gluten Free Snacks! It’s filled with all sorts of paleo/whole food snacks (some completely GAPS friendly too!).

In the recipe card I’ve linked to some of the products from my affiliate partners that I like to use. Purchasing through these links won’t cost you anything extra. Thanks!

Ingredients

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/4 cup flax meal

1/4 teaspoon Himalayan salt

Instructions

Combine everything until well mixed.

Roll pieces of ‘dough’ into 1-inch balls.

Refrigerate for about 10 minutes before consuming.

Store leftovers (if there be any) in the fridge.

Ah, so easy and I bet they taste awesome! Would like to try this recipe using almond butter. Visiting from Raw Foods Thursdays.

Love this idea! Especially for the summer when I don’t want to bake! I’ll try this with SunButter. Thanks.

I used tahini instead of peanut butter and they tasted divine. Though mine were a bit crumbly and hard to roll into balls. Should I have simply added more nut butter? Thanks!

Oh my goodness! Genius idea, Sarah! And yes, I would’ve added more nut butter. The texture of tahini isn’t always the same as peanut butter, and that would make a difference. I’m TOTALLY using tahini the next time I make these. 😉
