Ingredients
45mlcoconut oil(melted and cooled)
40mlmaple syrup (you can also use agave or rice malt)
45gcocoa powder(plus more for dusting)
200gmedjool dates(pitted)
50gsmooth peanut butter
1teaspoonvanilla essence
½teaspoonsea salt
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together melted coconut oil, maple syrup and cocoa powder until smooth.
Place your dates, peanut butter, vanilla and sea salt in a food processor and pulse until you have a smooth paste. Add melted chocolate mixture and pulse more until well combined and a soft 'dough' is formed.
Transfer into a bowl, cover with cling film and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours, allowing it to firm up.
Spoon out the small amounts of the cooled mixture and roll into small balls using your hands (you can also use melon baller or measuring spoon). Roll the truffles in some more cocoa powder (beetroot powder or matcha powder will also work well and will give your truffles some great colours). Enjoy!
Notes
Prep time may vary
I used beetroot powder to get that deep, red colour on my truffles
You can store the truffles in air-tight container in your fridge for 3-4 days
