Recipes with few ingredients are always attractive in their simplicity. What if the components are also interchangeable, useful, and children really like them? Agree that these are good reasons to make homemade diet candies.

Homemade diet sweets:

Ah, candy! This is a pain point for those with a sweet tooth on a diet. We offer a step-by-step recipe for homemade coconut candies: two-colored with a pleasant coconut-chocolate taste and delicate texture.

Don't worry about your figure - each candy contains only 37.1 kcal. In addition, the candies have low...

So, let's begin?

Ingredients:

• coconut flakes – 50 g
• cocoa – 1 tbsp. l.
• almond flour – 1 tbsp. l.
• Agave syrup – 1 tbsp. l.
• for dusting – a mixture of coconut flakes, lemon zest and turmeric.

Preparing healthy dietary candies without baking

In a coffee grinder or shredder (a blender will not work), grind the coconut flakes until they are moist and sticky. With stops, shaking the cup every 1-2 seconds.

Using a spoon, periodically stir the mixture, moving it away from the walls towards the center.

Grind to a semi-liquid paste-like state until it separates. By the way, don’t be afraid of the fat contained in coconut, it’s very healthy!

Place the pasta in a bowl. Add 1 tbsp. l. agave syrup. Alternatives include maple syrup, Jerusalem artichoke syrup, or honey. True, the latter has a rather high glycemic index, take this into account.

Divide the resulting paste into 2 equal parts.

In one - add 1 tbsp. l. almond flour. Instead, you can use almonds crushed in a coffee grinder or milk powder, which together with coconut flakes gives the candies a “Raffaello” taste. Thoroughly grind the “white porridge”.

Add 1 tbsp to the other half of the mass. l. cocoa. (we use carob because we make these candies for children).

The resulting mass is no longer sticky, it crumbles.

Two bases for homemade sweets are ready.

We form homemade dietary sweets.

Fill a semicircular measuring spoon (7.5 mg) halfway with the white mass, pressing well with your thumbs so that the coconut oil comes out.

Place the dark base on top and press down well again.

We press on one edge of the candy, and it comes out of the mold on its own.

Place homemade diet candies made from coconut flakes on a plate or on a surface covered with cling film.

To prepare a beautiful topping, we use a mixture of 25 g coconut flakes, the zest of half a small lemon and a pinch of turmeric and whack-whack in a coffee grinder.

Place the finished candies in the cold (not in the freezer) to harden for 3 hours.

Makes 9-10 diet candies. Cooking time 20-25 minutes.

If you need more, increase the portion!

These candies are a real treat. They are very similar to the famous Raffaello candies, but still, without the thin wafer, they “sound” different. These little balls melt on your lips like snow-white snowballs in your hands.

Homemade coconut candies “Snowballs” will be a wonderful gift for New Year or Christmas or will be an excellent decoration for the holiday table.

These candies seem to be the quickest and easiest to make.

The hardest part was finding white chocolate. Porous ones will also work.

Break the chocolate into a bowl.

Heat the cream until boiling. Pour into chocolate. And leave for a few minutes.

Mix the chocolate thoroughly with a spoon, add soft butter at the end and mix again. Place the ganache in the refrigerator.

In the meantime, let's take care of the almonds.

Pour boiling water over the nuts and leave for a couple of minutes. Drain the water and add boiling water again.

Peel the nuts. Fry in the microwave for 2-3 minutes at maximum power.

When the ganache has cooled, beat it with a mixer until thick.

Use a teaspoon to scoop out the chocolate mixture. Place in coconut flakes. Place a nut in the center.

Form a ball with your hands and roll thoroughly in the shavings. Do this with the entire mass.

Store candy in the refrigerator.

Bon appetit and sweet holidays.

Homemade coconut and date candies

Ingredients:

Dates - 150-200 gr;

Coconut flakes from one coconut;

Sesame - approximately 6 -7 tablespoons.

First you need to prepare coconut shavings; to do this, grate the contents of one on a fine grater. You can see how to open a coconut easily and safely here.

After the coconut shavings are ready, we begin dates. Wash it, let it dry a little, remove the seeds and put it in a small saucepan or stewpan.

Add a little water and put on low heat. The task is to obtain a soft, homogeneous mass; you can use a spoon or spatula. If the dates are soft, then the mass is ready in a couple of minutes. Then let it cool a little.

Add coconut flakes to it and mix everything thoroughly.

The resulting mass can be put in the refrigerator for a while, so it will mold better.

Fry the required amount of sesame seeds in a frying pan or in the oven until light golden brown, let cool. Pour sesame seeds into a small container.

Let's start forming balls. To do this, simply take a little candy mass with your fingertips and form a small ball, then put it in a container with sesame seeds, where we roll it on all sides.
