Description
Delicious and creamy no-bake vegan pumpkin truffles that are perfect for a sweet treat any time of the year.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup pumpkin purée (not pie filling)
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 cups dairy-free dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- Optional: Crushed pistachios or sea salt flakes for topping
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine pumpkin purée, almond flour, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until a thick dough forms.
- Scoop the mixture into small portions and roll into balls or shape using silicone molds. Freeze for 20–30 minutes until firm.
- Melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Dip the chilled truffles into the melted chocolate, coating them fully. Place on parchment paper and sprinkle with crushed pistachios or sea salt if desired.
- Chill in the refrigerator until set, about 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- Make sure to use pumpkin purée and not pumpkin pie filling for the best flavor.
- For a nut-free version, consider using sunflower seed flour instead of almond flour.
- These truffles can be stored in the fridge for up to a week.
