100 grams of unsweetened coconut flakes (unsweetened)
60 grams of almond flour
21 grams of coconut oil (unrefined)
42 grams (3 tablespoons) real maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
Cocoa Powder (or preferably healthier Cacao) to taste (1 - 2 tablespoons)
- Mix the ingredients together (you probably will want to melt the coconut oil before adding it).
- Roll into little balls (makes about 10)
- bake in the oven at 200 degrees for 20 minutes then turn the stove off and let the Roons sit in the oven for hours or even overnight.
-Enjoy! Delicious with a cup of hot green tea!
Cost: I already regularly have the above ingredients at my house except the almond flour (which is quite expensive too). If you don't, buying the ingredients for this recipe will be even way more expensive than just buying the premade bag! My suggestion - buy a bag of the cookies first and see if you like them. But pound for pound, making this recipe at home is costs between $4 - $5 per batch, assuming you buy all organic ingredients, compared to the $9 at Whole Foods. Since I don't eat many sweets, and this is one of my "go-to" treats, and I do typically have the ingredients on hand (and it's very quick to throw together) I find it worth while to make my own.
They are "Raw" and Paleo Diet-friendly, if you care about that.
Sorry that the measurements are in grams, but I use an electric scale that has a "grams" option.
