ingredients

For the Truffles:

  • 1/2 cup frozen blueberries, thawed and drained
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 scoop vegan vanilla protein powder (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or agave syrup)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus more as needed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt

ingredients

For the White Chocolate Coating:

  • 1/2 cup dairy-free white chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Method

  • Step 1

    Add the thawed and drained blueberries to a food processor and blend until mostly smooth. (If mixing by hand, mash the blueberries well with a fork until smooth.)

  • Step 2

    Add oats, protein powder (if using), maple syrup, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the food processor.

  • Step 3

    Blend until a thick, sticky dough forms. (If mixing by hand, stir well until fully combined.)

  • Step 4

    If the mixture is too dry (from the protein powder), add an extra 1-2 teaspoons of lemon juice or maple syrup. If too wet, add a little more oat flour (1 teaspoon at a time).

  • Step 5

    Scoop out small portions and roll them into balls.

  • Step 6

    Place on a parchment-lined plate and freeze for 15-20 minutes until firm.

  • Step 7

    Melt the dairy-free white chocolate with coconut oil in the microwave (in 20-second increments) or over a double boiler.

  • Step 8

    Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, coating evenly, then place back on the parchment-lined plate.

  • Step 9

    Once all the truffles are coated, drizzle extra melted white chocolate over the top for a decorative pattern.

  • Step 10

    Sprinkle with additional lemon zest for extra flavor and a bright finish.

  • Step 11

    Refrigerate until the chocolate is fully set. Enjoy!

  • Step 12

    Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
