How to Prepare Coconut Vanilla Bean Truffles [Vegan]

Prepare a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
Combine the coconut flour, 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, maple syrup, coconut milk, and vanilla bean in a food processor. Pulse to combine until the mixture resembles a crumbly dough that holds together when pinched between two fingers. Scoop the dough into 1 tablespoon round balls and set them onto the prepared baking tray. Place the tray in the freezer for 15 minutes.
While the balls are in the freezer, melt the chocolate. In a heatproof bowl above a pot of boiling water, melt the chopped chocolate and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil. Stir until everything is smooth and melted. Remove from heat.
Coat the balls in melted chocolate. To do this, place a coconut ball into the bowl with the melted chocolate. Completely cover it and then using two forks, pass the ball between them to allow excess chocolate to drip off. Place the truffle back onto the tray and sprinkle with sea salt. Repeat until all truffles are coated in chocolate. Freeze the truffles for 15-20 minutes, then serve.
