Best Breakfast Power Truffles Recipes

CARNATION BREAKFAST TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Place chocolate drink mix, peanut butter, and Neufchatel cheese in a mini food processor. Pulse until well combined.
• Roll mixture into eight 1-inch balls. Dip each ball in agave, then in chopped pecans. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container.

5-MINUTE PROTEIN TRUFFLES

Steps:

• 1. Mix the nut or seed butter, honey, and salt in a medium bowl until blended. Add the protein powder, stirring until completely combined (mixture will be firm).
• 2. Protein powders vary in terms of their dryness. Hence if the mixture seems too wet, add a bit more protein powder, or some ground oats or flaxseed meal, until the mixture comes together as a dough. If the mixture seems too dry, add some milk (nondairy or dairy) or water, one tablespoon at a time, until the mixture comes together as a dough.
• 3. Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the mixture into your hands and shape into 1-inch balls.
• 4. If desired, place one or more of the suggested coatings in small shallow dishes. Roll each ball in the coating, gently pressing to adhere. Place the balls in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator.

BREAKFAST POWER TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Pulse the oats, almonds, chia seeds, cocoa nibs and pepitas in your food processor and process until finely ground. Add the coconut flour and salt and pulse again to combine. Add the dates, peanut butter and honey and process until it is combined into a thick paste. If the mixture is still wet, add coconut flour as needed.
• Scrape the mixture onto a baking sheet and use your hands to roll it into round balls, about 2 tablespoons each. If desired, roll each truffle in coconut flour. Chill for 1 hour before transferring to an airtight container. The truffles can be refrigerated or frozen for up to 2 months.
