INGREDIENTS

  • 0 1/2 cup Blanched Almond Flour
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp Coconut Flour
  • 0 1/4 tsp Baking Powder (Straight Phosphate, Double Acting)
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 0 1/8 tsp Salt
  • 0 1/4 cup Coconut Milk Beverage, plain, unsweetened
  • 3 tbsp Xylitol
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter Stick
  • 2 each Egg

DIRECTIONS

This recipe is suitable for all phases except for the first two weeks of Induction due to the almonds.
  1. Prepare a large skillet or deep fat fryer with 2-3 inches of oil. Heat to 350°F. In a small bowl combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and salt. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
  2. In a small sauce pan bring the coconut milk, butter and 1 1/2 tablespoons xylitol to a boil. Remove from heat and add the flour mixture stirring until very thick and it forms a ball. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Once cool add eggs and mix until completely incorporated, a thick paste texture, about 1 minute. Drop by tablespoons 4-8 at a time into the fryer and fry until golden brown and crisp on the outside; about 3-4 minutes; rotating halfway through. Repeat until all of batter is used. It should make about 16 balls. Set aside on a paper towel once cooked.
  4. In a blender pulse the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of xylitol with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon 1 -2 times, until xylitol granules are a little smaller. When each batch is finished roll in the xylitol-cinnamon mixture until evenly coated and set on a serving platter. Enjoy immediately or they may be kept at room temperature for 1 day. May also freeze for 3 months or refrigerate for up to 1 week. 2 balls per serving.
