a truffle that loves your gut as much as you do
if you’re pregnant or simply want to support healthy digestion in the most delicious way, these smooth moves antioxidant truffles are your new go-to!!
i am so excited about this recipe!
they taste like a decadent dessert but are secretly full of fiber-rich ingredients that gently support regularity.
they’re made with psyllium husk powder, flax meal, prunes, and dates — all amazing for digestion, along with creamy almond butter for healthy fats and freeze-dried blueberries for a natural antioxidant boost.
the combination makes each bite taste indulgent while delivering nutrients your body will actually thank you for.

how these came to be
this recipe came to life because i was eating dates, prunes, and psyllium husk separately when i was feeling constipated to help with digestion during pregnancy.
honestly, it wasn’t the most enjoyable combo.
i figured there had to be a way to turn all of those gut-loving ingredients into something i actually looked forward to eating.
that’s how these smooth moves antioxidant truffles were born ; a delicious, chocolatey way to support regularity and sneak in fiber and antioxidants all at once.
why they’re a gentle helper for digestion
fiber can be a game changer for digestive comfort, especially during pregnancy, and these truffles sneak in multiple forms of it.
psyllium husk provides soluble fiber that absorbs water and keeps things moving smoothly, flax meal adds omega-3s and more fiber, and prunes are naturally rich in sorbitol, which has mild laxative effects.
together, they promote healthy, comfortable digestion without any harsh effects — just gentle, natural balance.

antioxidant power
the addition of freeze-dried blueberries gives these truffles an extra layer of nourishment.
blueberries are loaded with antioxidants that help combat oxidative stress and support overall wellness.
pairing those with healthy fats from almond butter makes the nutrients even more absorbable — so you’re not just getting a fiber boost, but also a little antioxidant glow from the inside out.
when to enjoy them
these truffles make the perfect after-dinner dessert. they’re sweet enough to feel indulgent but light enough that they won’t weigh you down.
having a couple after your evening meal is a delicious way to end the day and support digestion overnight.

storage
store your smooth moves antioxidant truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
they taste incredible straight from the fridge — cold, chewy, and perfectly firm, but can also be softened at room temperature for a few minutes before eating.

Ingredients
truffle base:
2 oz freeze-dried blueberries
1 cup pitted medjool dates
1/2 cup dried prunes
1/3 cup creamy almond butter
2 tbsp ground flaxseed (flax meal)
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp unsweetened dairy-free milk, add more as needed
pinch of sea salt
2 tbsp psyllium husk powder (choose organic 100% pure psyllium husk or psyllium husk powder with no additives)
chocolate topping:
1/2 cup refined sugar-free dark chocolate chips
1 tsp coconut oil
Directions
- prepare the base:
add the freeze-dried blueberries, medjool dates, prunes, almond butter, flax meal, vanilla extract, dairy-free milk, and sea salt to a food processor. - pulse the mixture:
pulse several times, then process until a thick, slightly sticky dough forms. scrape down the sides as needed to make sure everything is evenly blended. - add psyllium husk last:
sprinkle in the psyllium husk powder and pulse again just until fully incorporated. this step keeps the texture smooth and prevents over-thickening while blending. - form the truffles:
line a tray with parchment paper. transfer the mixture to the pan and press it evenly into a flat rectangle about 3/4-1 inch thick. the dough will b sticky, so you can slightly wet the tips of your fingers to mold. should be about 6 in x 8 inch to create 24 small squares. - freeze:
place the pan in the freezer for about an hour, or until the mixture is firm enough to slice. cut into squares:
remove from the freezer and cut into 24 equal square truffles. - melt the chocolate:
in a small bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together until smooth (use 20-second microwave intervals or a double boiler). - coat the tops:
spoon a small amount of melted chocolate onto each square, spreading it gently to cover just the top.
set and store: return the truffles to the freezer for 10–15 minutes, or until the chocolate topping hardens.
store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 2 months.

Can I replace the Psyllium Husk with Partially Hydrolyzed Guar Gum powder (or “sunfiber”)?
