No-Bake Vegan Sweet Potato & Coconut Donut Holes by Dayna Martin


I love having healthy vegan snacks on hand at all times for our family. We don't buy any convenience foods, so much of what we eat needs to be created by scratch. Every morning, I made something different. Today, I created this recipe and I just had to share with you all! These don't have the texture of a donut, but the flavor is very satisfying and not too sweet. You *feel* like you are eating something that is truly feeding your body. Try these and tell me how you like them!

INGREDIENTS
1 Large, Cooked Sweet Potato
1/4-1/2 Cup Vanilla Almond Milk.
1 Teaspoon Ea. Cinnamon, Nutmeg & Ginger
3/4 cup Coconut Flour
1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
½ T. Salt
½ Cup Raw Pecans Chopped
1/4 Cup Raw Shredded, Unsweetened Coconut

RECIPE
Add Sweet potato to food processor. Slowly add almond milk.  Transfer to a bowl and add remaining ingredients excepts pecans and shredded coconut. One tablespoon of dough at a time, roll into balls. .
Spread pecans and shredded coconut on a tray and roll each ball in the pecans and/or coconut to coat.
Refrigerate covered for at least 10 minutes. Enjoy healthy indulgence!

Dayna, this recipe is delicious! I made them last night with my 3 year old. The texture is really unusual but I can't stop eating them! Such a lovely combination of sweetness with the ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon (I used all 3 spices) will keep trying your other recipes too as they all sound so good! I can't wait for the tiramisu one :) Jem x
