Ingredients
  

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (plus extra for rolling)

1 cup almond flour (or finely ground oats for a gluten-free option)

1/3 cup maple syrup (or honey)

Zest of 1 lime

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Optional: 1 tablespoon coconut oil for extra creaminess

Instructions
 

Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, carefully combine the shredded coconut, almond flour, maple syrup, lime zest, lime juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. For a richer, creamier texture, consider adding the optional coconut oil into the mixture.

    Mix Thoroughly: Using your hands or a silicone spatula, mix all the ingredients together until they are well incorporated. The mixture should be sticky and hold together nicely when pressed between your fingers.

      Form the Bites: Wetting your hands slightly to prevent sticking, scoop about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a small ball. Repeat this step until you have shaped all the mixture into delightful little bites.

        Coat (Optional): For an extra touch of flavor and presentation, roll each coconut lime bite in additional shredded coconut to create a lovely outer coating.

          Chill: Arrange the coconut lime bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet or a plate. Place them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.

            Serve: Enjoy your delicious no-bake coconut lime bites chilled, as they are perfect for a refreshing snack or a light dessert!
