Herby Cheese & Almond Truffles
Prep time: 15 minutes (plus chilling time)
Makes: 10 - 12 balls
INGREDIENTS
250g cream cheese
3 tbsp nutritional yeast
½ cup FreshLife Natural Almonds, finely chopped
⅓ cup FreshLife Almond Flour
1-2 tbsp lemon juice
1-2 tbsp fresh parsley and chives, finely chopped
¼ tsp salt
Black pepper to taste
½ cup FreshLife 4 Seed Mix, lightly toasted
METHOD
In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix the cream cheese, nutritional yeast, chopped almonds, almond flour, lemon juice, herbs, salt, and black pepper. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 30–60 minutes until firm enough to handle.
Pour the lightly toasted seed mix into a shallow bowl or small plate and set aside.
Lightly coat your hands with a small splash of cooking oil to prevent sticking. Scoop out heaped tablespoonfuls of the chilled cheese mixture and roll them into uniform balls.
Roll each cheese ball in the seed mix until completely and evenly coated. Transfer to a clean plate or parchment-lined tray. Refrigerate for an additional 30 minutes to firm up completely before serving.
