Yesterday was my roommate's birthday/moving to Australia party. We are going to miss Debbie so much! Not only is she a great friend and roommate, but she also is a fantastic cook and lover of healthy treats. For her party, she made the most delicious almond butter truffles. As you might know by now, I love almond butter with a passion. These truffles are the more sophisticated version of my late night spoonfuls of almond butter interspersed with a handful of granola or chocolate chips. Debbie's truffles have the perfect consistency and texture, not too sticky, but not dry or crumbly. And being the artist that she is, she decorated her truffles with adorable chocolate designs! You have to try these delicious, healthy, and very easy to make truffles!
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 cup processed gluten free oats (or oat flour)
For chocolate topping:
- 1/2 cup of chocolate unsweetened (melted)
- 1 tsp oil
Directions:
- In a food processor, blend almond butter, honey and oats together.
- Form dough into round balls.
- Melt chocolate in a double boiler, and add the oil.
- Dip truffles into chocolate or "paint" on designs using a chopstick, like Debbie did!
- Enjoy these truffles any time of the day, or night!
