Metabolism Revolution Part 2, Phase 3 | Serves 10
Prep time: 20 minutes | Total time: 30 minutes
INGREDIENTS Meal Map A, B, and C
Macaroons:
1/4 cup birch xylitol
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons raw coconut oil
Pinch sea salt
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
1 large egg
2 cups (firmly packed) raw coconut, shredded
Chocolate Dip:
2 tablespoons birch xylitol
2 tablespoons raw coconut oil
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons raw cacao powder
DIRECTIONS
-
Position a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat to 325 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
-
Make the macaroons: Using an electric mixer, beat the xylitol, coconut oil, and salt in a large bowl until blended. Beat in orange zest, then egg. Mix in the coconut. Drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet in 16 mounds.
-
Bake the macaroons 10 to 15 minutes, until golden on the bottom and browned in spots. Cool completely on the baking sheet.
-
Meanwhile, make the chocolate dip: Whiz the xylitol in a blender until it is a fine powder. Gently melt the coconut oil. Stir the powdered xylitol into the warm oil until it is fairly well dissolved (don’t worry if it’s still a little grainy). Stir in the cacao until smooth.
- Dip the bottoms of the cooled macaroons in the chocolate. Place on parchment, and chill until the chocolate is firm, about 30 minutes. Store leftover macaroons in the refrigerator.
