Description

Gluten Free, Vegan, Refined Sugar Free Option

A no bake, soft gingerbread filling covered in dark chocolate, and topped with candy cane.  What could be more festive?! These gingerbread truffles are the perfect NO BAKE solution to your holidays!


Ingredients

Scale

For the Truffle Inside:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1.5 tsp ginger
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 cup drippy nut butter
  • 1 tbsp molasses
  • 1 tbsp agave
  • 3 tbsp non dairy milk

To Top:

  • 3/41 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil 
  • Optional: crushed candy cane

Instructions

  1. Combine the first six ingredients in a large mixing bowl – stir until well mixed.
  2. Add molasses, agave and nut butter.  Stir until dough is formed – it will be very crumby.
  3. Add milk in one tablespoon increments until a softer dough is formed that can be rolled (you also don’t want it too wet, the amount needed will depend on your nut butter!).
  4. Roll into 12 even balls, place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and put in freezer to chill.
  5. While those chill, melt your chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second increments, careful not to burn.
  6. Once chocolate is melted, take truffles and dip into chocolate one by one, completely coating, and using a fork to get out of the bowl.
  7. Place back on cookie sheet, sprinkle with toppings, and put in fridge to set.

Notes

To ensure this is vegan, use vegan chocolate chips

For a refined sugar free option. omit candy cane (could use sea salt or another topping!)
