A simple, “No Bake” Vegan Pumpkin Pie Truffles Recipe, which couldn’t be more decadent if they tried. Made these on a whim after having a few extra cans left over from this year’s thanksgiving feast. Think pumpkin pie filling meets a coating of dark chocolate, making these fudgy bites perfect for the holiday season. 

“No Bake” Pumpkin Pie Vegan Truffles

Okay, I know it sounds a little weird but I’m telling you that you got to try it. And they’re far simpler to make than you’d think. You just need a food processor, a sheet pan, a bowl, and a small pan. And of course, the desire to keep this pumpkin obsession going. Are you with me here?!

What I love about this recipe is that it tastes oh so good and it’s nowhere near junky. Whoever said vegan food doesn’t taste good never tried these, with the pumpkin (fiber, beta-carotene), almond butter (magnesium, vitamin E), coconut butter (fiber, medium chain fatty acids), coconut flour (more fiber), and just the tiniest amount of maple syrup (manganese, natural sweetener). This pumpkin pie truffles recipe proves that a few pantry staples can come together for an irresistible treat that totally satisfies those fall flavors.

I love making these and keeping a batch for 1-2 weeks in the freezer depending on how often my sweet tooth craving hits.

Like all good things, the hardest part about these pumpkin pie vegan truffles is waiting for a full 30 minutes for them to chill in the freezer before you dunk them into the melted chocolate. I’m normally a very patient human, but when I’m making these truffles or really anything with chocolate, I have to admit that more times than not I end up eating them all before the night is over.

I like to at a little Himalayan Sea Salt on top. It enhances everything it touches. It makes flavors pop and pairs so beautifully with just about anything sweet, which is why these pumpkin pie truffles got a little sprinkle of salt before drizzling extra chocolate on top.
