No-sugar Chocolate Peanut Butter TrufflesThese no-sugar truffles are the perfect treat to cure any craving.
Makes 15 – 20 truffles
INGREDIENTS
1/3 c natural peanut butter [or any other nut butter]
1/3 c oat bran, plus extra if necessary
1 heaped Tbsp cocoa or raw cacao powder
big pinch sea salt
1 Tbsp rice malt syrup, optional
1 1/2 Tbsp raw cacao powder, extra, to roll truffles
METHOD
Stir together all ingredients, except extra cacao, until well combined. If necessary add more oat bran a teaspoon or so at a time until the mixture is firm.
Scoop or pinch off small pieces and roll between your hands to create truffles. Drop onto extra cacao powder and shake gently to coat.
Eat immediately or refrigerate for 30 mins and roll in a second coating of cacao.
COOK’S NOTES
For an extra decadent treat mix equal parts melted coconut butter and coconut oil with a bit of cacao powder and drizzle over cold truffles.
Substitute the peanut butter with any other nut or seed butter, simply adjust the quantity of oat bran as needed for the consistency of the butter. Macadamia butter, almond butter and even perhaps tahini would be perfect.
