1/4cupdairy free eggnog, I used So Delicious Coconut Holiday Nog
1tbspcoconut palm sugar, for coating
Instructions
Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
Pour coconut oil and maple syrup into the dry mixture and mix well.
Add the eggnog until a thick batter is formed. If the batter is too runny, add a teaspoon more coconut flour at a time until batter thickens.
Place batter in freezer for roughly 15-minutes to firm up. This will make the batter less sticky so you can form balls easily.
Scoop a teaspoon of dough and form into a small ball. You can roll the balls in the extra coconut palm sugar to coat then place in large shallow tupperware, dish or tray.
Store balls in the fridge for up to 2-weeks.
Notes
Steps 1-3 can be done using a food processor, if you have one.

DID YOU KNOW? Food-grade lemon essential oil can be used in a variety of recipes (from sweet treats to savory dishes) to replace lemon zest or lemon extract.
Lemon essential oil is a highly concentrated derivative of lemons that comes from cold-pressing the lemon peel and not the inner fruit. The peel is the most nutrient-dense portion of the lemon in terms of fat soluble phytonutrients.
Lately I’ve been experimenting with lemon essential oil in my smoothies and baked goods – and OMG, I’m hooked!
Lemon essential oil not only packs a flavourful punch, but it makes my food taste like I’m some kind of pro chef . The best part is – no more chipping my shellac nails on the evil zester!
