RECIPE: Quick and simple homemade truffles!
Try this foolproof recipe for making your own DAIRY-FREE homemade
truffles flavored with essential oils. Another GREAT one to keep handy
for the holidays, especially for friends and family with dietary restrictions!
EASY Dairy-Free Homemade Truffles
-1/4 c cocoa or raw cacao powder
-2.5 tsp agave, maple syrup, or coconut nectar (low glycemic)
-1 tsp melted virgin coconut oil
-1 drop essential oil - try Wild Orange, Peppermint, Lemon, Lime,
Bergamot, Tangerine, Coriander, or Cinnamon Bark (if using Cinnamon
bark, be sure to use the toothpick method - drop a drop on a toothpick
and swirl it in the mixture, to taste).
Directions: Gently
melt the coconut oil in a double boiler or in a saucepan at a very low
heat on your stovetop. Measure cocoa or cacao powder into a bowl and add
melted coconut oil and sweetener. Mix to combine and add essential oil
to taste. Transfer to the fridge to cool until it is easy to roll the
substance. Roll in cocoa powder and/or spices (for instance, rolling
truffles with Wild Orange essential oil in a mixture of cocoa powder and
cinnamon would be delicious!) to coat. Store in refrigerator until
ready to eat.
OPTIONAL: If you wish to add vanilla extract, we
suggest adding 1/2 tsp and reducing the sweetener to 2 tsp. For a
creamier texture, reduce the sweetener by 1 tsp and replace with 1 tsp
coconut cream.
