4 Ingredient No Bake Keto Pumpkin Cake Balls
These no bake pumpkin cake balls are soft, moist and low sugar, low carb and keto-friendly. They only need 4 ingredients and don't require any baking.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (122g) pumpkin puree, see note
- 2 tbsp (30ml) sugar-free maple flavored syrup
- 1/4 cup (23g) coconut flour
- 2 cups (352g) sugar-free dark chocolate chips, see note before starting
Instructions
- Add pumpkin, syrup and coconut flour and mix until evenly combined. The mixture should be thick and scoopable. If it seems like the mixture is too wet to shape into balls, you can add a little more coconut flour. If it seems too dry, add a little more syrup or pumpkin.
- Scoop 1 tbsp of the mixture and roll into balls. Place onto a small parchment lined baking sheet and place balls into freezer until firm, about 1 hour.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth. If your melted chocolate seems too thick, you can add 1-2 tsp of melted coconut oil to thin it out.
- Dip the balls in the melted chocolate, letting any excess drip off. Return to the baking sheet. If desired, you can also add thin chocolate drizzles over the balls. Place the balls into the fridge until the chocolate is set. The balls are then ready to eat. Store any uneaten balls in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- Pumpkin note: Try to use a brand of canned pumpkin that makes a thick puree. Avoid ones that are watery.
- Chocolate note: You can also coat these balls in sugar-free semisweet, milk or white chocolate. But if you need the balls to be dairy-free, make sure to use dairy-free chocolate. The melted chocolate consistency will vary depending on the brand. Some brands have a very thin consistency and are easier for dipping. Some melt down to a thicker consistency and you may want to add 1-2 tsp coconut oil to thin it out.
