- Number of Servings: 18
Ingredients
1 cup Almond Butter .25 cup Organic Maple Syrup 2 tbsp Bob's Red Mill Coconut Flour 8 tbsp Chocolate, Nestle Real Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Mix together almond butter and maple syrup until fully combined and smooth. Add coconut flour and stir until almond butter begins to thicken and turns into a dough.
Roll 1 tablespoon of dough into small balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat until no dough remains. Set aside.
Melt the chocolate over a double boiler until completely smooth. (recipe is calculated using 1/2 cup chocolate morsels) Use 1 cup if you want chocolate covered truffles and use 1/2 cup if you want just a chocolate drizzle on top. If dipping, use a fork dip the almond butter balls into the chocolate and return them to the baking sheet. If drizzling, use a fork to drizzle the melted chocolate over the balls. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired. (sea salt not included in nutritional information)
Place in the fridge for 1 – 2 hours, until chocolate has hardened. And of course, enjoy!
NOTES: a few substitution ideas if you want to try a different variation:
The almond butter can be changed for any nut/seed butter
The syrup can be changed for any other liquid sweetener
The chocolate can be left off or swapped for a different type of chocolate or chocolate chips of choice; such as a dark chocolate bar (like 70 – 85% cacao) or milk chocolate morsels if you prefer.
Serving Size: 16 - 18 truffles
Number of Servings: 18
