Apple Truffles

Hannah Kling
My homemade Apple Truffles are full of fruity, nutty, and white chocolatey flavors! Featuring apple, granola butter, a gooey caramel center, warm spices, and an indulgently creamy coating, they taste like apple pie in bite size form.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings 8 truffles

Ingredients  

  • 1/2 cup apple cider granola butter, (may sub regular, almond or cashew butter)
  • 1/3 cup apple butter
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 1 tsp apple pie spice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp caramel of choice (or caramel candies)
  • 1 cup white chocolate
  • 1-2 tsp coconut oil
  • Crushed graham cracker crumbs (for garnishing)

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine the granola butter and apple butter and mix until well incorporated. 
  • Add in the coconut flour, apple pie spice and cinnamon last and mix with a rubber spatula. 
  • Using a cookie scoop, scoop the dough and roll into a ball with the palm of your hands and then place a dollop of caramel in the center, add a small piece of dough on top to cover and gently roll into a smooth ball before placing on a piece of parchment paper. Alternatively, you can use a chewy caramel for the center, but these tend to firm up once refrigerated and make it hard to enjoy.  
  • Melt white chocolate in the microwave or on a double broil with the coconut oil to help smooth it out. 
  • Then, dip and coat each truffle in the white chocolate before returning to the baking sheet that's line with parchment paper. Immediately sprinkle with graham cracker crust while the chocolate is still wet. 
  • Place in the freezer for roughly 15-20 minutes to full harden. Remove and enjoy! 
  • These are best stored in the fridge and enjoyed within 7-10 days. 
  • Truffles can also be frozen for an extended time, thaw in the fridge or best results

Notes

  • Chill the truffle mixture before forming the balls to make it easier to handle. I don’t always take the time, but when I do it is a lot less messy! A quick 15-minute chill in the fridge is all you’ll need. 
  • Melting the chocolate: While you can use a double boiler, I usually just use my microwave to make it easy. The one thing you won’t want to skip is the added coconut oil — it makes the chocolate so much smoother.
  • More garnish options: I love my graham cracker crumb garnish, but caramel apple truffles would also be tasty rolled in cocoa powder, or drizzled with dark chocolate instead!
