These Vegan Coconut & Rum Snowballs are the easiest, no-bake Christmas treats! They are clean eating, so you don’t have to feel guilty after eating all of them. 😉 Made with coconut and oat flour so they’re gluten-free, too!
When I say these snowballs are fluffy heaven, I MEAN IT. They are sweet, coconut-y and if you use rum extract (which I highly recommend you do), super festive too!
In my family, these treats don’t even last an afternoon. And I have to make them like every two weeks. They are THAT good.
When I developed the recipe, I wanted to make sure that this treat will be healthy and clean eating.. That’s kind of my thing, y’know?
It’s completely refined sugar-, gluten-, dairy-, and egg-free. There is also no alcohol in it. 😉 I just used rum extract (instant Christmas vibes!)
When you make the “dough”, make sure to use canned, full fat coconut milk and to use the creamy part that is on top usually.
I counted the almonds that I chopped up and there were exactly 50 of them (in case you wanted a very precise amount 🙂 ).
When you’re done making the dough, put it in the fridge for an hour or two (depends on how much time you have on your hands), so all the ingredients can come together (harden).
This step is not to be skipped, since right after combining the ingredients, the dough is quit runny and you can’t make balls out of it.
After an hour or so in the fridge, you can start making the balls. (I made 11 smaller ones.)
Roll them into shredded coconut and place them in the fridge for another hour before eating (optional).
Keep the snowballs in the fridge and they will last up to 3 days (or an afternoon if there are coconut fans around).
I think these treats make a great DIY Christmas present as well. Find a big enough jar or a decorative container and you’re good to go!
Wishing You and Your Family a Very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! ❤

Hi,
I was just wondering if these could be frozen? As I like to make big batches of things I like xx
Hi Louise!
Unfortunately I haven’t tried freezing these, so I can’t say for sure. Although, I’m sure they won’t keep their fluffy texture after thawing. 🙁
