Low-carb Vegan Mango Bliss Balls

Before you say "mangoes aren't low-carb/keto" hear me out.

You would be right in thinking that eating a mango while on a low-carb/keto diet has the potential to take you out of ketosis. However,  this recipe uses a small amount of mango (enough to give the bliss balls a mango flavour) and is blended with higher fat ingredients like coconut and coconut oil. 

The total carb count per bliss ball is less than 4g, which means if you were to eat these as an occasional treat (no more than 1 daily) you would be able to easily remain in ketosis.

Combining higher carb foods (e.g. mango) with higher fat foods (e.g. coconut) can slow down the rate in which sugar is absorbed, meaning you will have a slow, sustained release of energy and minimal spikes in blood sugar levels.

For this recipe you will need:

80g of mango (fresh or frozen)
1 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
1 tbsp rice malt syrup
30g shredded coconut  (set 1 tbsp aside for rolling)
70g almond meal

1. Add the mango, melted coconut oil, rice malt syrup and shredded coconut to a magic bullet or blender and blend until well combined.
2. Pour the mixture into a bowl and add the almond meal. Combine well.
3. At this point the mixture should be soft (like playdough). Roll the mixture into bite sized balls and then coat in shredded coconut.
4. Store the bliss balls in the fridge so that they remain firm.

If you are using frozen mango, defrost it first and drain out any excess water.

This recipe makes 10 bliss balls at 3.3g of net carb per serve.

Enjoy!
