Ingredients
- 1 cup pitted dates
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/2 cup almonds
- 1/2 cup raw cacao powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 serving (30 g) of protein powder (I used SFH Vanilla)
- 1/4 cup of milk
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup coconut flakes
- 1/2 tsp coconut extract (optional but oh-so-good!)
- Extra chia and coconut for garnish
Instructions
- Blend dates in a food processor until a pea-like consistency is created.
- Add nuts into the dates and blend until combo is finely ground.
- Mix the remaining ingredients and blend until a sticky ball is ball is formed.
- Remove mixture and roll into one-inch sized chunks.
- Pour chia seeds and coconut flakes onto a plate, then roll truffles until completely coated. Add flakes and more seeds .
- Place balls in a container, cover, and store in the fridge.
Once you’ve reached the desired consistency where it’s pliable but not too liquid-like, remove the mixture and form into one inch sized chunks. You should get about 15 balls.

Pour a combination of chia seeds and coconut flakes onto a plate and roll them around until they’re fully coated. Store them in the fridge, and they ought to last up to a week. Warning: you will get chia seeds in your teeth when you eat these!
Put the remaining ingredients into the date and nut mix, and blend until a sticky ball is formed. Depending on type and the consistency of protein powder that you have, you might need to use a bit more or less milk. Do not worry if you add a bit too much milk, you can always add more dry ingredients (like oats) to absorb the liquid.
I began to name them protein chunks, since they do have some protein powder in them, but the texture is more of a chocolate ganache than a protein bar, so I decided to call them truffles. The only sweetness comes out of dates, which are the foundation of these recipes, so they can be your regular real food truffles : ) And don’t they look oh so fairly rolled in chia and coconut?|
