🧾Ingredients

0/8

Coconut-Almond Dough

  • 15gVegan vanilla protein powder (pea, soy, or blend)
  • 5gCoconut flour
  • 1-2 tbspUnsweetened almond milk or coconut milk
  • ¼ tspCoconut extract
  • ¼ tspAlmond extract
  • to tasteZero-calorie sweetener (Stevia or Erythritol)

Center & Coating

  • 3 (one per bomb)Whole raw almonds
  • 5gUnsweetened shredded coconut (finely grated)

👨‍🍳Method

1

Mix the Dry Ingredients

1 min

In a small bowl, combine the vegan vanilla protein powder, coconut flour, and zero-calorie sweetener.

2

Create the Dough

2 min

Add the coconut and almond extracts to the dry mixture. Slowly pour in the unsweetened almond milk, just a half-tablespoon at a time. Stir continuously with a spoon or your hands until the mixture forms a thick, slightly sticky dough.

💡Vegan protein powders absorb a lot of liquid — add very slowly. If it gets too wet, add a pinch more coconut flour to rescue it.
3

Form the Centers

2 min

Divide the dough evenly into 3 equal pieces. Flatten each piece slightly in the palm of your hand, place one whole almond in the center, and roll the dough around it to form a perfectly round sphere.

💡Wet your hands slightly — it prevents the dough from sticking to your palms while rolling.
4

Coat the Bombs

2 min

Sprinkle the unsweetened shredded coconut onto a small plate. Roll each sticky protein ball in the coconut until completely coated on all sides. Gently press the coconut flakes into the dough so they stick.

5

Chill and Serve

15-20 min

Place the coated bombs on a plate and set them in the refrigerator for at least 15-20 minutes to firm up before serving.

💡These taste even better after a full hour in the fridge — the coconut flavor deepens and the texture becomes dense and fudgy.
