Put your greens powder to work and blast cravings with these dairy-free truffles, made with absolutely NO SUGAR. The perfect low-carb delight. Just 3 nourishing ingredients, topped with your favorite superfoods.

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups (140 grams) unsweetened medium-shredded coconut
• 2 tablespoons (20 grams) greens+ O powder, vanilla flavor *see note
• ½ cup extra-virgin coconut oil, at room temperature

To make cacao truffles, add:

• ¼ cup cacao powder

Optional toppings

• Hemp hearts
• Chia seeds
• Unsweetened medium-shredded coconut

Instructions

1. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. If you’re going to add toppings to your truffles, place a couple of tablespoons of topping ingredients in separate small bowls and set aside.
2. Add coconut and greens powder to the bowl of your stand mixer or food processor with dough blade, or a large bowl and use a handheld mixer. Mix until coconut is covered in greens, then add coconut oil.
3. Mix until everything is combined. The mixture should hold together nicely.
4. Scoop dough, about 1 tablespoon at a time, into the palm of your hand. Roll lightly and place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough. Mixture should make 14 truffles.
5. Once completed, transfer baking sheet to the fridge to cool for 15 minutes.
6. Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for 5 days, or freezer for 2 months.

Notes

Greens powder: Greens+O is lightly sweetened with stevia and the flavor I used, vanilla, adds good flavor to the truffles. If you use a different greens powder for this recipe, make sure it’s one that you really love as the flavor will come through on this! Also, there is a touch of grain in Greens+O however, because of the fermentation, I find that it doesn’t affect me whatsoever. If you can’t find a greens powder that works for you, feel free to replace the greens powder with 10 drops of stevia and 2 teaspoons of matcha powder or an equal amount (20 grams) or protein powder.

Various flavors: if you want to do a half-batch of chocolate like I did, separate the dough in half and add 2 tablespoons of cacao powder to the half, mix to combine, then follow the instructions.

Nutrition information: If you’re looking for this recipe to replace your daily dose of greens powder, the recipe calls for 20 grams, that’s about 3 servings of greens powder. The recipe makes 14 truffles, so that’s about 4-5 truffles per serving. The nutrition information outlines the stats for 1 truffle with the basic ingredients only. No cacao powder or toppings.
