COCONUT TRUFFLES
1/2 cup dried, shredded, unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup almond flour
3 tablespoons coconut oil, softened (If your oil is solid, place the jar in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes.)
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup (or substitute a scant 1/8 tsp powdered stevia extract according to the level you like.)
1/4 cup toasted pecan (or other nut) pieces, chopped very small (Large pieces of nuts will make it difficult to form the balls.)
Place first five ingredients into a bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until thoroughly combined and cohesive. With clean hands, form into small (about 1/2 ounce) balls, roughly the size of a large marble. Place in fridge while you make the glaze. Makes 9-10 balls.
