Description
These Healthy Pumpkin Truffles are a no-bake, wholesome fall treat made with pumpkin puree, almond butter, oat flour, and warm spices dipped in rich dark chocolate for a guilt-free indulgence.
Ingredients
For the Truffle Filling:
½ cup pumpkin purée (not pumpkin pie filling)
½ cup almond butter (or peanut butter)
¼ cup pure maple syrup or honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or ½ tsp cinnamon + ¼ tsp nutmeg + ¼ tsp ginger)
1 cup oat flour (or finely ground oats)
For the Chocolate Coating:
½ cup dark chocolate chips
1 tsp coconut oil
Instructions
1. In a bowl, mix pumpkin purée, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and pumpkin spice until smooth.
2. Stir in the oat flour until a soft dough forms (add a little more if too sticky).
3. Roll into small balls (about 1 tbsp each) and place on a parchment-lined tray.
4. Freeze for 20–30 minutes until firm.
5. Melt dark chocolate and coconut oil together until smooth.
6. Dip each chilled truffle into the chocolate and return to the tray.
7. Refrigerate until chocolate sets, then serve.
Notes
Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freezer for 1 month.
For extra crunch, roll truffles in crushed nuts or coconut before chilling.
Use sugar-free chocolate for a keto-friendly version.
