These little balls of goodness will have you addicted at first bite. They are deceivingly delicious, leaving you wonder how they could possibly be healthy. If that wasn’t enough, they’re quick and fun to whip up – which is lucky because they won’t last long!
In this variation I added a little cayenne pepper. If you’re a fan of the chilli-dark chocolate flavour combo, then I highly recommend it. I added about half a teaspoon of cayenne, but feel free to add to taste ;)

Chocolate Coconut Truffles
Makes ~15 truffles
1/2 cup dates, approximately 12 (dates are not low FODMAP)
100g almonds
100g desiccated coconut
1 tbsp coconut oil
4 tbsp raw cacao powder
1 tbsp water
1 tsp cinnamon
Optional add ins
Cayenne pepper
Tahini
Peanut butter
Espresso shot
Orange zest
Mix all the ingredients in a food processor for 2-3 minutes or until the dough comes together into a ball. Place the mixture in the fridge for about 10 minutes, then form 15 small round truffles with your hands. Roll the truffles in cocoa powder, desiccated coconut or even finely chopped nuts. Keep refrigerated – they taste best chilled.
Enjoy.
Hi everyone,
Sorry about the old labels on this recipe. It once upon a time was "low FODMAP" when some of these ingredients hadn't been verified as being high so I've now fixed up all the labels. It's definitely a delicious one in moderation if you can tolerate dates.
Thanks!

Hi, I'm a bit confuse this recipe is "fructose friendly" and "sugar free" but it contains dates? Also dates are not low fodmap
This is just a heads up.
You have writen that this is a low FODMAP recipe – in your recipe index.
Dates are NOT low FODMAP :)
