Vegan Bounty Bars

6/24/2015

Make your own vegan & healthier version of Bounty at home! This recipe comes straight from Elephantastic Vegan; a website full of delicious healthy food. These soft, delicious coconut bars coated with dark chocolate are the perfect dessert. I haven’t eaten a “real” Bounty in a long time, so my memory of it is rather blurry but I think this version is softer and I love it that way, but if you want to make them a bit firmer just add a bit less coconut milk and more coconut oil. I also recommend buying organic coconut - it seems to have a lot more flavour.

INGREDIENTS
Ingredients for the coconut bars
  • 2 cups / 200g desiccated coconut
  • 1 tablespoon / 20g Coconut Oil
  • 1 tablespoon / 25g Organic Rice Syrup
  • 7 tablespoons / 140g coconut milk
Ingredients for the chocolate coating
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil
  • 4 tablespoons unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Organic Rice Syrup

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. In a mixing bowl add all the ingredients for the coconut bar and mix and knead them with your hands until you can form the bars. Put the bars on a baking sheet and place them in the fridge to harden for a couple of hours or overnight.
  2. For the chocolate coating, heat the coconut oil in a double boiler. Add in the cocoa powder and rice syrup and whisk until it's a nice smooth chocolate sauce.
  3. With a pastry brush coat the chocolate bars. Put them in the fridge again until the chocolate is hard and then they ready!

NOTE: Keep them in the fridge for storage.
