These look yummy!
Fudgy Sweet Potato Truffles
1/2 c mashed sweet potatoes*
1/2 of a medium avocado (about 1/3 c if diced)
3 T carob powder
1-2 Tbs oat flour
1 T coconut oil, melted & cooled slightly (can place on to p of warm sweet potato and it will melt)
1 tsp Roma, Caffix, or Pero (grain coffee substitute)
1 tbs honey
pinch of salt
Combine all ingredients in a small food processor or blender**. Whiz on high for 2 minutes, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides, blending until completely smooth with no lumps. Scoop out one tablespoon at a time, rolling into a ball. Makes 8 -12 truffles, depending on size. Chill for at least 2 hours in the fridge for best flavor. If desired, top with dusted cocoa powder or coconut cream.
*Bake sweet potatoes in the oven, microwave, or cook in the crock pot until easily pierced with a fork. Scoop out inside flesh and mash down into 1/2 cup measuring cup.
** If you don’t have a food processor, you can mash & combine by hand, but the truffles won’t be quite as smooth. Still, that’s never stopped me.
