When I think of fall, I inevitably think of the flavors and foods I can only get this time of year.

Changing leaves are beautiful, and I certainly love the cooler temperatures, but fall food?

Man, oh man…

I’m talking pumpkin, cinnamon, cloves, chai spice, maple syrup, and of course, APPLES!

We are blessed with 2 abundant apple trees right in our yard, so this time of year, there is no shortage of deliciously sweet-tart and totally organic (and free!) apples!

So I decided it would be appropriate to take our homegrown apples and our homegrown maple syrup and make a healthy, sweet, paleo no-bake treat!

Recipe Subs & FAQs

Can I use sweetened shredded coconut from the grocery store?

No, your treats will be FAR too sweet! Also, the ingredients on sweetened coconut flakes are far from nourishing. Unsweetened, shredded coconut is the way to go here. (Save 10% on my favorite organic, unsweetened coconut flakes with my discount code NOURISHING.)

Do these no-bake treats taste coconutty?

Personally, I don’t think so. The maple, apple, and cinnamon flavors definitely shine here. Also, I use an expeller pressed coconut oil, which is flavorless and odorless. (Save 10% on my favorite expeller pressed coconut oil with my discount code NOURISHING.)

Can I make these keto no-bake treats?

You can! Please use Lakanto’s Maple Syrup — NOT a granulated keto sweetener. A liquid sweetener is required to help these treats stick together.

I don’t have maple syrup. What sweetener should I use?

A liquid sweetener is required for these no-bake treats to hold together. You can try an equal amount or slightly less of raw honey. However, my personal recommendation for a delicious, fall flavor sans maple syrup is coconut syrup. (Save 10% on my favorite coconut syrup with my code NOURISHING.)
