Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pecans
  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour*
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 7/8 cup cooked and mashed sweetpotato**
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • Cinnamon sugar for rolling

Instructions
 

  • Place the pecans in a food processor and process to the texture of coarse sand. Add the oat flour, pumpkin pie spice, and sea salt and pulse in until combined.
  • Add the mashed sweetpotato, maple syrup and vanilla extract and process until all ingredients are evenly incorporated and the mixture clumps together into a dough.
  • Shape dough into small balls (about 3/4 ounce each, or the size of a ping-pong ball) and roll in cinnamon-sugar to coat.

Notes

These keep best if placed in individual mini muffin liners and kept in an airtight container. If needed, roll in cinnamon sugar again before serving. * This recipe is gluten-free if made with gluten-free oat flour. **To make the mashed sweetpotato, place in a pot of boiling water and cook for 25-30 minutes, until fork-tender. Carefully remove from water, peel and mash with a fork. Allow to cool before using in recipe.
