Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Mix all ingredients together. Add more coconut flour (only a teaspoon at a time) if the dough is too soft, add a teaspoon or more of water, or almond milk if the dough is too thick***
  • Roll the batter into tablespoon sized balls, and press a pecan piece into the top.
  • Refrigerate for 15 minutes to set

Notes

*I used a plant-based protein powder. Whey protein powder also works, but the result will be gummier.
***I find that it's best to use my hands to mix the dough because it takes some kneading and pressing to get the dough to come together.
