  • Mixing Bowl

Allergen Information

⚠️ Milk (unless plant milk used)
⚠️ Tree Nuts (Coconut)

Instructions

1 ✓

Mix dry ingredients (oats, 1/2 cup coconut, cocoa, salt) in a bowl.

Tip: Salt acts as a flavor enhancer for chocolate, never skip it!
2 ✓

Add wet ingredients (honey, milk, vanilla). Mix thoroughly until you have a sticky mass.

Tip: If your honey has crystallized, warm it slightly so it blends easily.
3 ✓

Let the mixture sit on the counter for 10-15 minutes.

Tip: This is crucial: the oats need time to hydrate and soften, making the mixture rollable.
4 ✓

With wet hands, form walnut-sized balls and roll them in the remaining coconut.

Tip: Water on your hands prevents sticking and helps the outer coconut layer adhere.
5 ✓

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before eating.

Tip: The cold solidifies the fats, giving the balls a chewy, firm texture.

Recipe FAQ

The mixture is too soft, what now?
Refrigerate for 10 minutes before rolling, or add more oats. The oats need time to absorb the liquid.
