Is Coconut Keto Approved?

Yes, coconut is keto approved. Both coconut flour and unsweetened coconut flakes are low in carbs and have a large amount of fiber in them. In order to keep this snack sugar-free, it’s important to select unsweetened coconut flakes when going grocery shopping for the ingredients. If you buy the regular coconut flakes you find in the store, those tend to have sugar added to them. coconut covered balls on a plate with shredded coconut flakes in a bowl

Nut Butter Substitutions

Don’t want to use almond butter? You can substitute with any nut butter in the recipe. Macadamia nut, cashew, sunflower and pili nut butters will taste the best since they have mild flavors compared to peanut butter. If you are allergic to nuts, try using coconut butter instead! a single coconut covered ball in a bowl that says together is my favorite place

Keto Coconut Lime Energy Balls: FAQS

Can I substitute coconut flour with another type of flour?

Coconut flour is quite unique and absorbs a lot of moisture, so it's best to stick with it for this recipe. If you need a substitute, consider using almond flour, but you'll need to adjust the liquid ingredients as almond flour is less absorbent.

How long can I store these energy balls?

You can store these keto coconut lime energy balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. If you want to keep them longer, you can freeze them for up to three months!

Is there a sugar-free alternative to maple syrup?

Absolutely! You can use sugar-free agave syrup or even a keto-friendly sweetener like erythritol or monk fruit sweetener in place of the sugar-free maple syrup. Just adjust the quantity to your taste.

Can I add other ingredients to these energy balls?

Definitely! Feel free to mix in some chopped nuts, seeds, or sugar-free chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture. Just remember to keep the ratios similar to maintain the right consistency.

How many energy balls does this recipe make?

This recipe typically makes about 12-15 energy balls, depending on the size you roll them. Enjoy them as a quick snack to keep you energized throughout the day!
