Hello world!!
Yesterday my only one Vegan friend Dorothy visited me and we was cooking all evening. that was a great time. I had a plan to make coconut bites a while ago and we decided to make it for a great evening, so I let Dorothy to make them as she really want to learn new, vegan things to make at home. She did really well!!
There were delicious, is an amazing healthy treat for any occasion !
Here is the recipe!
Ingredients:
for Coconut bites
3/4 glass of Millet
1 and 1/2 glass ( and more, read below ) of Almond or Coconut milk ( I used Coconut )
1/2 glass of Ground walnuts
4 spoons of ground almonds
2 small packs of vanilla sugar (ABOUT 8 teaspoons or more as much sweet you prefer )
pinch of turmeric
4 tablespoons of shredded coconut, plus more to coat bites
Chocolate coat:
0.5 of a cup melted coconut oil
5-6 teaspoons vegan cocoa
agave syrup - to taste as sweet you prefer.
Cook millet in almond or coconut milk with vanilla sugar and turmeric- longer than better.
My millet was advised on a pack to cook about 15-20 minutes but we was cooking it about 30-35 minutes, adding more milk all the time and stir, to make consistency soft, add more sugar if you prefer for your best taste. You need to make sure you let milk to evaporate all the time and add more ( I am so sorry this word is very new to me so I don't know is it right to use in recipes ) to cook long and got soft but sticky enough consistency. .
In food processor combine walnuts, 4 spoons of shredded coconut and 4 ground almonds. Mix it all together with cooked millet. You can make it in a bowl stir with a spoon. Shape your bites. You can leave them in a fridge for few minutes.
On a side in a small pan or bowls mix the coconut oil, ad cocoa and agave syrup. Let it cool of in a fridge for 10 minutes.
Coat coconut bites in chocolate and shredded coconuts.
Leave in a fridge for 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
