Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by lining a baking tray with wax or parchment paper.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin purée, homemade pumpkin spice, salt, and liquid stevia.
  3. Gradually add the oat flour, mixing until the dough forms a cohesive, slightly sticky mixture.
  4. Using your hands, roll the mixture into bite-sized spheres, roughly the size of a golf ball.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it in 30-second intervals.
  6. Using a fork, dip each pumpkin sphere into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully submerged.
  7. Immediately after coating, sprinkle a small pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each truffle.
  8. Place the tray in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
