How to Make Cardamom Cacao Truffles
- Grind 1/4 cup of flax seeds (golden or dark) separately using a high-speed blender or food processor until finely ground.
- Repeat with 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds and set aside.
- Grind 1/2 cup cacao nibs in a separate bowl using a high-speed blender or food processor until finely ground. Set aside 3 tablespoons for coating.
- In a food processor, combine the ground flax seeds, ground sunflower seeds, remaining ground cacao nibs (1/2 cup - 3 tbsp), 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, 1/4 cup erythritol (or other sugar substitute), 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, and a pinch of sea salt.
- Process until a smooth, cohesive dough forms (about 1-2 minutes). If the mixture is too dry, add 1-2 teaspoons of water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until it comes together.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Place the reserved 3 tablespoons of ground cacao nibs in a shallow bowl.
- Gently roll each truffle in the cacao nibs until evenly coated.
- Place truffles on a parchment-lined plate and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy these delightful, healthy truffles!
