1. Turn the oven to 180C Fan. Pop the hazelnuts onto a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Alternatively cook in an air fryer at 180C for around 5 minutes.

6. Add the ground almonds, medjool dates, cacao, coconut oil, vanilla paste and sea salt.
7. Process until the mixture is well combined and holds together when you press it between your fingers.
8. Roll the mixture into balls, and place a hazelnut in the center of each one.
9. Melt the dark chocolate and dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, then roll in the crushed hazelnuts.
