Healthy Coconut Shortbread Truffles
Ingredients
Dry:
- 96g (1 cup) Old Fashioned Rolled Oats (blended to a flour)
- 96g (½ cup) Granulated Erythritol (or dry sweetener of choice)
- 60g (1 cup) Reduced Fat Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
- 40g (¼ cup) Brown Rice Flour (or more Oat Flour)
- 32g (1 scoop) Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
Wet:
- 1 15oz can Garbanzo Beans (drained and rinsed well; 1½ cups beans)
- 6 tbs Light Coconut Milk (canned)
- ¾ tsp Natural Butter Flavor
- ¼ tsp Coconut Extract
- ¼ tsp Vanilla Paste
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Set aside.
- In a blender, puree the wet ingredients. Pour over the dry ingredients and fold to combine. Press the mixture down in the bowl so the surface is flat, cover and refrigerate overnight.
- The next day, scoop the mixture (it should be fairly firm) into equal size chunks and roll into balls. Roll in more coconut or leave plain. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator covered (serve chilled for best texture!)
Recipe Notes
Feel free to coat these in white chocolate (yum!) or even add a couple tablespoons of coconut butter to the mix.
