Instructions
Add the shredded coconut and/or sliced almonds into a food processor and pulse to remove large strands from coconut and almond chunks from the bites. The bites tend to fall apart if this process is skipped.
Combine all ingredients into a stand mixer or a mixing bowl and stir until combined.
Using a 1½ inch (#50) cookie scoop, scoop the mixture on to a lined cookie sheet. This recipe should make 20-24 bites.
Refrigerate for at least an hour to allow them to set. If desired, roll them into balls.
Store in refrigerator until ready to enjoy. I like to portion them (2 pieces) into a snack size bag for easy grab n go.
Remove from refrigerator 15 minutes prior to eating to allow the almond butter to relax and provide a creamier texture.
