Tips for Perfect Truffles 🥄
Success depends on getting the right consistency for the dough and proper chilling.
Dough Consistency & Banana Ripeness
- Adjusting Flour: The amount of coconut and almond flour needed depends on the ripeness of your bananas. If your bananas are underripe, you may not need all the suggested flour. If they are overripe (which is ideal for sweetness), you may need a little more to achieve a thick, moldable batter.
- Forming the Dough: Mash the bananas until very smooth, and mix the flours in little by little until you have a thick batter that can be rolled into balls.
Chilling and Dipping
- Overnight Chill is Key: The truffle balls must be refrigerated overnight. This extended chill time is crucial for the balls to firm up completely and hold their shape during the dipping process.
- Dipping Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips with a tablespoon of coconut oil until completely smooth. Dip the chilled balls quickly, and immediately sprinkle with the extra shredded coconut before the chocolate sets.
