Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Natural peanut butter (unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips (vegan, if desired)
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, coconut flour, maple syrup, grated ginger, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until a firm dough forms.
Using clean hands, roll the dough into small balls about 1 inch in diameter. You should end up with approximately 12 truffles.
Place the truffle balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze them for 15 minutes to firm up.
While the truffles are chilling, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a double boiler or microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each interval until smooth.
Remove the tray of chilled truffles from the freezer. Using a fork or skewer, dip each truffle into the melted chocolate until fully coated, then place it back on the parchment-lined sheet.
Optional: Dust the coated truffles with cocoa powder while the chocolate is still wet for a decorative touch.
Let the chocolate coating set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
Transfer the truffles to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage.
Serve chilled or at room temperature, and enjoy the luxurious blend of chocolate, ginger, and peanut butter!
