The proverbial phrase “When lifestyle offers you lemons, make lemonade” is usually utilized to encourage optimism and a positive can-do attitude when one faces adversity or misfortune.
But lemme just say that I wholeheartedly hate that phrase.
Why must i make lemonade together with your stupid lemons life?
You would like me to open a lemonade stand on the street selling lemonade 50¢ a cup. Nah, it’s not an option – I’m not really 0 years old anymore.
Maybe I could consider becoming a lemon magnate. I mean if the product cost is zero, I can retail lemons for a significant revenue. That’s business 101.
But it all depends on the amount of lemon you’re providing me life…
But seriously, there are always a million things you can do with lemons: muffins , a marinade for poultry or salmon , a dressing for salad , a good sauce for pasta
Or you can make a treat that can nearly fix anything, from a lost job to some broken heart.
I did say almost.
And I know it’s not wise to drown your sorrows with meals, but somedays it requires something similar to a (No-Bake) Coconut Lemon Meltaway Ball to cause you to feel immediately better.
Great food puts you in a better mood.
These little guys are just too an easy task to make.
You basically put everything in a bowl, mix for a little, roll them right into a ball shape and they’re prepared to eat in just a matter of minutes.
Did I mention that they’re natural, grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, refined sugars free, and also paleo-friendly?
But what matters most is that they are phenomenally delicious.
If you want coconut and lemon you need to make ‘em: you have no excuses!
⅓ cup coconut flour
6 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (if using honey choose one using a mild taste)
4 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Zest of one lemon
In a large dish combine almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Set aside.
In another dish combine maple syrup (or honey), lemon juice, vanilla extract, and lemon zest.
Using an electric combine slowly add the damp ingredients until fully combined. With the mixer on, gradually add coconut oil until it is combined in (it’ll appear to be crumbles but ought to be smooth enough that should you squeeze it with your fingertips it should stay together.)
Lightly oil your hands, after that scoop one heaping teaspoon of coconut mixture and move it right into a ball.
Repeat to create 30 small balls. Roll them in shredded coconut flakes in the event that you feel like.
Place coconut balls onto a lined baking sheet and transfer towards the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, until firm.
Keep stored in the refrigerator.
