Deliciously decadent truffles that are healthy – could it be true? Oh yes, it is! Hope you enjoy these delicious real food truffles too! Mmm!
As a fun twist to this delectable recipe, I’ve also used this as the base to create some scrumptious dairy-free, grain-free Raw Cookie Dough Bites – perfect for kids of all ages!
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy raw almond butter
- 1/2 cup, plus 2 tbsp raw honey
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp filtered water
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups organic coconut flour
- 3 tbsp ground golden flax seed
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- Optional choices for rolling truffles: Unsweetened shredded coconut; fine-crushed dried strawberries; or carob, cocoa or raw cacao powder
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the raw almond butter, honey, coconut oil, water and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the coconut flour, ground flax seed and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix well to combine.
- Use your hands to really knead the dough well to combine all the ingredients together.
- Then, scoop out tablespoon-size portions and roll into balls using your hands.
- Next, roll each truffle in your choice of toppings. Or melt some dark chocolate and dip each ball into the melted chocolate and place on wax paper to set.
- Refrigerate truffles for at least 30 minutes prior to serving.
- Store in airtight container in frig for up to a week or in freezer for up to one month.
- These truffles are perfect for parties, or just for fun! Enjoy!
