Do you love pumpkin pie + energy balls?! Look no further — these raw pumpkin pie truffles are the PERFECT healthy Thanksgiving dessert. I’ll be honest, these were a sheer kitchen accident. I meant to make pumpkin energy bites, but the dough ended up being too soft. The logical answer: coat them in dark chocolate + turn them into truffles (chocolate makes everything better, right?) They are the perfect mix of pumpkin + chocolate without being overly sweet + it seriously takes less than 30 minutes to make. What are you waiting for? If you make them for the holidays, please tag me as this makes me so happy 🙂

Ingredients
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 10 pitted medjool dates
- 1 tbsp almond milk
- 3 tbsp pumpkin puree
- ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 bar organic dark chocolate bar
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- Pumpkin seeds + sea salt for decoration
- Parchment paper
Instructions
- Place almonds, dates, pumpkin puree, almond milk + pumpkin spice into a high power blender or food processor. Blend until a dough forms, but you still have some small pieces in it.
- Put dough in a bowl, cover + let it chill for 15 minutes.
- Right before you take the dough out to roll into balls, place the dark chocolate bar + coconut oil into glass/microwave safe bowl in the microwave for about 2 minutes (periodically stopping to stir).
- Place parchment paper on a baking tray and take dough out of the fridge. Start to roll the dough into small balls and dip balls in chocolate and place on parchment paper. After coating 6, stop to add 3 pumpkin seeds + a sprinkle of sea salt. Continue until all balls are coated + decorated!
- Place in the fridge to harden + keep in there for up to 2 weeks to enjoy!
