Date & Pistachio Truffles with Chia Seeds
Method
Process Base: Blend the pitted Medjool dates and warm water in a food processor until a thick paste forms.
Add Dry Ingredients: Add the pea protein powder, chia seeds, ground cardamom, and half the chopped pistachios to the processor bowl.
Form Truffles: Pulse until a cohesive dough forms, then roll the mixture into eight even bite-sized balls.
Garnish: Roll each truffle in the remaining chopped pistachios to coat completely, then chill before serving.
Nutritional Insight: Soluble fibre from chia seeds and dates slows glucose release, working alongside plant protein to optimize satiety and silence food noise during GLP-1 journeys. Culinary Hack: Soak the dates in boiling water for five minutes if they feel dry to ensure a perfectly smooth, sticky binding paste.
