- 1 cup almond flour - 1/2 cup rolled oats - 1/4 cup pure maple syrup - 1/4 cup pumpkin puree - 2 tablespoons creamy almond butter (or any nut butter) - 2 teaspoons pumpkin spice mix - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - 1/4 teaspoon salt - 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (or dairy-free chocolate chips) - Optional: cocoa powder or crushed nuts for rolling Gathering the right ingredients is key. First, you need almond flour and rolled oats. These provide a solid base for our truffles. The almond flour adds a nutty flavor and a great texture. The oats bring some heartiness to the mix. Next, you’ll want some pure maple syrup and pumpkin puree. The maple syrup adds sweetness. It also binds everything together. Pumpkin puree gives the truffles that lovely fall taste. You’ll also need nut butter. I recommend creamy almond butter, but any nut butter will do. This adds creaminess and richness. Don’t forget the pumpkin spice mix! This brings the warm, cozy flavors we love. A touch of vanilla extract enhances the taste, while a pinch of salt balances it all out. Finally, you’ll need dark chocolate chips. They will coat the truffles, adding a sweet and rich finish. If you prefer, you can use dairy-free chocolate chips. Rolling the truffles in cocoa powder or crushed nuts is optional but adds a nice texture. With these ingredients, you will create a delicious treat. They are perfect for sharing or enjoying on your own! - First, grab a large mixing bowl. Combine 1 cup of almond flour and 1/2 cup of rolled oats. Mix them well to break any lumps. - Next, add in the wet ingredients. Pour in 1/4 cup of pure maple syrup, 1/4 cup of pumpkin puree, and 2 tablespoons of creamy almond butter. Then, mix in 2 teaspoons of pumpkin spice, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Stir until you form a sticky dough. - Now, it’s time to shape your dough. Use your hands to form small balls, about 1 inch wide. - Place each truffle on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure they have space between them. - Melt the dark chocolate chips next. Use a microwave-safe bowl and heat them in 30-second intervals. Stir each time until smooth. - Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate. Make sure they are fully coated. Use a fork to lift them out, letting excess chocolate drip off before placing them back on the parchment. - After dipping, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator. Chill the truffles for about 30 minutes. This step helps the chocolate set. To get the right texture, make sure your dough is sticky. If it feels too dry, add a bit more pumpkin puree or maple syrup. You can also adjust the oats or almond flour. If your dough is too wet, add a little more almond flour until it feels just right. When melting chocolate, use a microwave-safe bowl. Heat the chocolate chips in 30-second bursts. Stir well after each interval until smooth. If you prefer not to use a microwave, you can melt chocolate on the stove. Place a heatproof bowl over simmering water, stirring until it melts. For added flavor, try adding extra spices like cinnamon or nutmeg. You can also roll the truffles in cocoa powder or crushed nuts right after dipping them in chocolate. If you want to change up the nut butter, try cashew or peanut butter for a different taste. Each option gives a unique twist to your truffles. {{image_2}} You can switch up the flavors in your truffles easily. One fun idea is to make chocolate pumpkin spice truffles. Just mix in cocoa powder with the almond flour for a rich chocolate flavor. You can also use different nut butters. Try peanut butter or cashew butter for a nutty twist. These changes keep the truffles exciting and tasty. Making these truffles fit your diet is simple. For a gluten-free option, stick with certified gluten-free oats. They work just as well in this recipe. If you want vegan truffles, swap the honey for maple syrup. Use dairy-free chocolate chips when coating. These swaps make your truffles safe for everyone to enjoy. How you serve your truffles can make them extra special. You can place them in cute boxes for gifts. Wrap them in clear bags and tie with a ribbon for a sweet touch. For decoration, roll the truffles in crushed nuts or colorful sprinkles. This adds fun and flair to your sweet treats. To keep your No-Bake Pumpkin Spice Latte Truffles fresh, place them in an airtight container. This prevents moisture and air from spoiling the truffles. Store the container in your fridge. The cool temperature helps maintain the texture and flavor of the chocolate coating. These truffles stay fresh for about one week. After that, they may lose their taste or texture. Signs that your truffles have gone bad include a dry or hard texture and an off smell. If you notice these signs, it's best to discard them. Always trust your senses when it comes to food safety. Yes, you can swap out the maple syrup. Here are a few options: - Honey is a great substitute for maple syrup. - Agave nectar works well and is vegan-friendly. - Coconut sugar can add a nice touch of caramel flavor. Each sweetener has a unique taste. Adjust the amount based on your preference. To boost the chocolate flavor, try these tips: - Use dark chocolate with a higher cocoa content. This adds richness. - Mix cocoa powder into the dough for a deeper flavor. - Drizzle extra melted chocolate on top of the truffles for a fun look. These small changes can make your truffles a chocolate lover's dream. Of course! Here are some nut-free swaps: - Use sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter. It gives a great flavor. - Replace almond flour with oat flour for a nut-free base. - If you want to avoid oats, try using rice flour for a different texture.

Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

1/4 cup pumpkin puree

2 tablespoons creamy almond butter (or any nut butter)

2 teaspoons pumpkin spice mix

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (or dairy-free chocolate chips)

Optional: cocoa powder or crushed nuts for rolling

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and rolled oats. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.

    Add the maple syrup, pumpkin puree, almond butter, pumpkin spice mix, vanilla extract, and salt to the bowl. Stir everything together until fully combined and a sticky dough forms.

      Once the mixture is well-combined, use your hands to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place the formed truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

        Melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.

          Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, making sure it's fully coated. Use a fork to lift the truffle out and let any excess chocolate drip off before placing it back on the parchment paper.

            If desired, roll the truffles in cocoa powder or crushed nuts while the chocolate is still wet for additional texture and flavor.

              Once all truffles are dipped, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

                Enjoy these sweet treats chilled, or store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
