Notes

1. Almond or Pecan Butter - Use any nut or seed butter you prefer. Just make sure it's 100% with no added sugar or seed oils. Sea salt is okay! You can also make your own nut butter by roasting and blending until creamy.

2. Allulose - Use any preferred liquid sweetener according to your lifestyle. I used liquid allulose because it does not affect blood sugar, and this recipe needs some sort of sticky sweetener to help bind it together.

3. Almond Flour - Use a food scale to weigh your almond flour! Don't just scoop and level. 1 cup = 128 grams. I used blanched superfine almond flour for this recipe.

4. Coconut Flour - Use a food scale to weigh your coconut flour. Don't just scoop and level. 1 tablespoon = 7 grams.

5. Pecans - I measured pecan halves, then rough chopped them to about small pellet size.

6. Nutrition and carbs – Be aware that some recipe blogs omit sugar alcohols or allulose from the nutrition calculation since it does not affect blood sugar. For transparency, I have included it and calculated the net carbs below. Always use a carb counter app like Cronometer according to the brands you use in order to get accurate nutrition information.

4.73 Total Carbs – 1.25 Fiber – .02 Sugar Alcohols – 2.40 Allulose = 1.06 Net Carbs per Ball or 1/20 of recipe.
