Matcha Balls Ingredients
To make these delicious matcha balls, you'll only need 9 ingredients:
- Almond flour
- Shredded coconut
- Matcha powder - Matcha green tea powder is a great supplement to add to your diet. My favorite is the MATCHA DNA brand, which is certified organic with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
- Cranberries
- Coconut butter or cream cheese
- Sugar-free syrup - You can use any sugar-free liquid sweetener like stevia. I recommend using my Keto Maple Syrup or Lankanto Sugar Free Maple Syrup, which is sweetened with monk fruit. It only contains 1 gram of net carbs per serving and is great in coffee, tea, pancakes, and loads of other keto recipes!
- Vanilla extract
- Nutmeg
- Sea salt
How To Make Green Tea Matcha Balls
You don't need any skills or special equipment to make these delicious matcha balls. All that's required is a blender or food processor! Follow the steps below to make them:
Step 1
Add the almond flour, shredded coconut, matcha powder, cranberries, butter, sugar-free syrup, vanilla extract, nutmeg, and salt to your blender or food processor. Blend all the ingredients together until they're well combined.
Step 2
Take a serving plate and shape the mixture into bite-sized balls. This recipe makes 20 match balls, but you can easily adjust the recipe if you'd like to make a larger batch.
Step 3
You can optionally roll the matcha energy balls in extra matcha powder or shredded coconut to garnish.
Storage Instructions
- In the fridge: Store your matcha balls in an airtight container in the fridge, where they'll keep for up to 2 weeks.
- In the freezer: If you want to make a larger batch and store them in the freezer (a great idea for meal preppers), these matcha balls freeze great! Simply store them in a freezer-proof container, and when you're ready to enjoy them, let them thaw (you can pop them in the fridge the day before).
