These Primal hazelnut chocolate truffles are going to blow your mind. Simple. It's not every day you come across a chocolate truffle that's free from refined sugar and packed full of health benefiting ingredients. In fact, this recipe doesn't contain a single ingredient that isn't Primal-friendly - from the truffle to the outside dark chocolate coating.
Ingredients
- Chickpeas (1x 400g tin)
- Hazelnut butter (100g)
- Cacao powder (3 tbsp)
- Raw honey (3 tbsp)
- Salt (1 pinch)
- Vanilla pod
- 85% dark chocolate (100g, melted)
- Chopped hazelnuts (50g)
Method
Begin by draining your chickpeas and rinsing them. Add the chickpeas, hazelnut butter, cacao
powder, honey, vanilla pod and salt to a food processor and blend for a few minutes until you
have a creamy texture.
Once done, roll the truffle mixture into small balls and lay them on a tray with parchment paper.
Using a fork, dip each truffle into your melted bowl of dark chocolate and cover them fully with
chocolate. Once done, sprinkle a few chopped hazelnuts onto the tray where your truffle will sit
back down. Place the chocolate covered truffle back down onto the tray and finish with sprinkling
the top with more hazelnuts. Now you should have a full covered truffle with chocolate and
hazelnuts. Repeat this process until all truffles are covered.
Once done, pop the tray into a freezer to allow the chocolate to set for 5-10 minutes. Remove from
the freezer and dig in!
These truffles will keep best in an airtight container in the fridge for a few days.
