Add the coconut to a frying pan and dry fry on a medium heat. After about 5 minutes it will turn golden brown. Keep an eye on it and keep stirring as it can burn quickly.
Remove from the heat and add in the almonds, maple, coconut oil and almond butter. Mix well until fully combined.
Spoon into a mini cupcake tray and press down firmly. Refrigerate whilst you melt the chocolate.
Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of hot water. Pour a spoonful of chocolate over each one. You can also top with extra coconut if you would like. Refrigerate to set.
Notes
Store in the fridge to keep them hard and so to maintain their shape. They will last for about a week.
If you prefer another nut or seed butter, then please substitute with that. Just keep the quantities the same. Use a smooth, runny one if possible (to ensure they stick together).
I have used dark chocolate which is at least 70% cocoa solids. This is what the nutritional information is based upon.
