Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while enjoying the flavors of the season, these truffles are a delightful addition to any autumn gathering. Here’s how to create these delightful bites of pumpkin goodness.
Ingredients
Truffle Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup nut butter (I used raw almond butter)
- 1/2 cup oat flour (or coconut flour)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (or raw honey)
- 2 tsp pumpkin spice
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4-1/2 cup pumpkin puree (adjust according to your taste preference)
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup melted coconut butter
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup (adjust according to your taste preference; ensure it’s room temperature to prevent solidification)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Truffle Mixture
- Combine Ingredients: In a food processor, combine the nut butter, oat flour, maple syrup, pumpkin spice, vanilla extract, and pumpkin puree (or sweet potato puree if you prefer). Process until the mixture sticks together and forms a cohesive dough.
Step 2: Shape the Truffles
- Roll into Balls: Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls. Place the rolled truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet. This batch should yield approximately 12 truffles.
Step 3: Refrigerate
- Chill the Truffles: Refrigerate the truffles while you prepare the glaze. This will help them firm up and hold their shape.
Step 4: Make the Glaze
- Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the melted coconut butter with room temperature maple syrup (or raw honey). Mix until smooth.
Step 5: Drizzle and Serve
- Glaze the Truffles: Drizzle the glaze over the chilled truffles. Return the truffles to the refrigerator for another 10-15 minutes to set the glaze.
Enjoy Your Truffles!
Once the glaze has set, your No-Bake Pumpkin Spice Truffles are ready to enjoy! These delightful bites are perfect for sharing at fall parties, or you can keep them all to yourself for a cozy night in.
Tips for the Best Results:
- Taste Test: Feel free to adjust the amount of pumpkin puree based on your taste preference. You can add more for a stronger pumpkin flavor.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
These No-Bake Pumpkin Spice Truffles are not only delicious but also nutritious, making them an ideal treat for the fall season. Enjoy the flavors of autumn in every bite! 🧡
