Banana Puffed Quinoa "Truffle"

Craving something sweet but knowing that we shouldn't just eat a whole bunch of chocolate, I decided to use some puffed quinoa that I had made earler (that recipe may come later) and bananas. This little "truffle" is just sweet enough with a little bit of bitterness.

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup dates pitted
  • 1 cup puffed quinoa
  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spices
  • 12 chocolate chips
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions

Add all ingrediets (except chocolate and cocoa powder) to a food processor and pulse until all ingredients have been combined. For the mixture into balls one tablespoon at a time. Take the chocolate chips and push into the center of the balls. Put the cocoa powder in a smal bowl or wide bottomed mug.One ball at a time, put the balls into the cocoa mixture and swirtl until fully covered. Refrigerate in anairtight container or enjoy immediately.
