Jaffa coconut rough is made with 5 ingredients – coconut oil, cacao, shredded coconut, maple syrup and wild orange essential oil. I have also included the thermomix method.
My coconut rough is one of the easiest healthy chocolate treats that you can make.
It only takes 5 minutes to make and around 30 – 60 minutes to set. It does not get much easier than that. It has been one of my most popular recipes to date for that reason.
I now add essential oils to my coconut rough to change up the flavours.
First, I started adding peppermint essential oil to make my minty coconut rough and now I have been making this jaffa coconut rough using wild orange essential oil.
I have also included the thermomix method for all the thermi users out there.
Now, what essential oil to try next!!
Enjoy

Jaffa coconut rough is made with 5 ingredients – coconut oil, cacao, shredded coconut, maple syrup and wild orange essential oil.
Ingredients
- 1 + 1/2 cups shredded organic coconut (desiccated coconut also works well)

Instructions
- Melt the coconut oil in a saucepan on low heat. Once melted, remove from heat, add the maple syrup, whisking briskly until well combined. Then add the cacao powder, stirring until well mixed through.
- Place the shredded coconut and wild orange essential oil into the saucepan and stir through the chocolate mixture. Spread evenly on a lined baking tray and place in the freezer for 30 – 60 minutes to set.
- Slice in desired sized pieces and serve. I recommend storing in the freezer to keep it firm.
Notes
Cook time does not include the time it takes for the jaffa coconut rough to freeze — approximately 30-60 minutes, depending on the temperature of your freezer.
