Peanut Butter Truffles (Advanced SCD)

For those of you who enjoyed Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, here is a SCD treat. Note: peanut butter is an advanced food for the SCD.

This post is linked to Sugar-Free Sundays at Flip Cookbook, Fight Back Fridays at Food Renegade, and Slightly Indulgent Tuesdays at Simply Sugar and Gluten-Free.

Peanut Butter Truffles (Advanced SCD)

1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter (SCD legal for SCD'ers)
8 TBSP (one stick) Butter
1 cup Almond Flour (not almond meal)
2 TBSP Honey (adjust if you need to)
1 1/2 cups Unsweetened Coconut Flakes

In a food processor combine peanut butter, butter, almond flour and honey. Pulse until smooth and creamy. Put into a freezer safe bowl and freeze a couple of hours until solid. Scoop out with a teaspoon, roll into balls and then roll in coconut to coat. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. Makes about 24 truffles.

  4. These sound good! I bet it would work with my dairy free butter substitute too :)

  5. Looks tasty! Do you think that it would still work without the butter? Or do you recommend a substitute?

  6. Probably a substitute. Maybe coconut oil? Or maybe more almond flour? I'm sure there is something that would work.
