Shopping List

For the Balls
- 1 medium Japanese sweet potato
- 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon almond flour
- 5 1/2 tablespoons oat flour (Note 1)
- 4 tablespoons raw or roasted cashew butter (Note 2)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt For the Glaze
- 1 1/2 ounces vegan white chocolate (we use Evolved)
- 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with foil. Poke holes all over the sweet potato with a fork, place on the baking sheet, and roast for about 45 minutes, or until puffy and soft inside when pierced with a knife. Slice open and let cool. Note: This step can be done a few days in advance.
- Step 2: Remove the skin from the sweet potato and mash the flesh with a fork. Measure out 1/4 cup of mashed sweet potato and place it in a food processor. Any leftover sweet potato makes a great side or snack.
- Step 3: Add the almond flour, oat flour, cashew butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt to the food processor. Blend everything together until smooth.
- Step 4: Roll the dough into 11 small balls and place in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.
- Step 5: Melt the white chocolate and coconut oil over a saucepan or in a microwaveable bowl. Dunk the frozen balls in the melted chocolate and place on a wire rack with a sheet of parchment underneath to catch any drips. Freeze the glazed balls in a freezer bag or airtight container.
- Serve: Remove from the freezer 5 to 10 minutes before enjoying to soften. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Note 1: Want to make these grain-free? Substitute the oat flour with 4 tablespoons of coconut flour. It will make about 10 balls. Note 2: Keep in mind that roasted cashew butter will have a much stronger cashew flavor than raw.
