Raw Fairies Recipe - Vegan Raw Chocolate and Coconut American Style Macaroons


I first tried these delicious and moreish vegan macaroons at a raw food event at Content, an organic beauty store in London. Raw Fairies catered the wonderful event which included informative talks by Trish Alkaitis, daughter of Dr Alkaitis. The plates of vegan macaroons looked ever so lovely stacked enticingly on several plates around the shop and would work perfectly for an after dinner treat for your next dinner party. Vegan, figure conscious and ‘I’ll take it if it’s tasty’ dinner guests will all love these! Makes about 25 to 30 depending on size

Ingredients

3 cups dried coconut flakes

1 ½ cups raw cacao (chocolate) powder (order from Tree Harvest)

1 cup maple syrup

⅓ cup coconut butter

1 tbsp vanilla extract

½ tsp sea salt


Break or dice up the coconut butter into tiny chunks. Combine with the other ingredients in a food processor and mix briefly (so that there are still some small bits of coconut flake). With a tablespoon, spoon rounds of the mixture onto your non-stick dehydrator screen and dehydrate at 115°F for 2-3 hours, until slightly firm on the outside but soft on the inside. If you do not have a dehydrator you could use your oven on the very lowest setting possible or just eat gooey macaroons, still delicious!
