Low Carb Pecan Pie Truffles



With these Low Carb Pecan Pie Truffles, you can indulge in the rich flavors of pecan pie without feeling guilty. These little morsels are ideal for sating your sweet tooth without going overboard on carbohydrates. For an extra-indulgent touch, they are covered in dark chocolate coating.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup pecans, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or preferred low-carb sweetener
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 8 oz dark chocolate at least 70% cocoa content

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped pecans, almond flour, powdered erythritol, sugar-free maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt

Mix everything until well combined and a dough-like consistency forms

Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized truffle balls

Place them on a parchment paper-lined tray and freeze for 30 minutes to firm up

While the truffles are chilling, melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and fully melted

Once the truffles are firm, dip each one into the melted dark chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated

Use a fork to remove the truffle, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off

Place the chocolate-coated truffles back on the parchment paper-lined tray and let them set in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes

Optional: Drizzle additional melted dark chocolate over the truffles for decoration

Once the chocolate coating has hardened, your Low Carb Pecan Pie Truffles are ready to enjoy! Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator

Serve and savor the deliciousness!
