ingredients
⅓ cup raw walnuts, ground
¼ cup raw cashews, ground
2 TBSP linseed, ground (this is optional and if you don’t have you can sub with more walnuts or cashews)
1 tsp solid coconut oil
1 tsp liquid sweetener of choice – raw honey, agave, maple syrup (you can use less if you want, but make sure you use enough to make the dough sticky)
2 fresh dates, pitted and each chopped in 3
To serve: nut meal of choice
Methods/steps
1) Add walnuts and cashews to a blender and process for few seconds to get them finely ground.
2) In a bowl, mix nuts with linseed (if using), coconut oil and sweetener until you get a sticky ‘dough’.
3) Roll each piece of date in tiny balls.
4) Divide ‘dough’ in 6 parts.
5) Get 1 part dough and roll it into a ball. Make a hole in it with your thumb and put a sticky date piece inside. Cover it up with the dough and roll it back into a truffle, making sure to cover all sides of the date filling.
6) Continue with the rest.
To serve, roll the truffles in a nut meal (I used almond meal) and place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes. You can also serve them right away, without fridge time.
