Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Healthy Pumpkin Truffles
  1. Prepare the Baking Tray: Line a baking tray with wax or parchment paper to prevent truffles from sticking.
  2. Mix the Truffle Base: In a mixing bowl, combine pumpkin purée, homemade pumpkin spice, salt, and liquid stevia, then add oat flour until combined.
  3. Form the Truffles: Roll the mixture into one-inch balls, yielding about 24 truffles. Coat your hands lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
  4. Melt the Dark Chocolate: Melt dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl at medium power in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  5. Dip in Chocolate: Use forks to dip each truffle in the melted chocolate, ensuring an even coating, then place on the tray to dry.
  6. Garnish and Chill: Before chocolate sets, sprinkle truffles lightly with flaky sea salt, and chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
