Description
These Healthy Peanut Butter Buckeyes are made with natural peanut butter and maple syrup, then dipped in dark chocolate. They’re no-bake, need just 7 ingredients and taste like a peanut butter cup!
Ingredients
Units
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup 70% dark chocolate chips, melted
Instructions
- Mix the peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut flour and almond flour together in a bowl until it forms a dough. If your mixture is too runny, add some extra almond flour. If it’s too thick, add a bit more peanut butter.
- Roll into balls, about 1 tbsp of dough per ball and place on a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place in the fridge to set for 10 minutes while you prepare the chocolate.
- Use a toothpick to dip each ball into the melted chocolate, covering about 3/4 of the way. You can optionally use any leftover chocolate to drizzle on top.
- Place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to set.
- Store in the fridge.
Notes
- Peanut butter brands vary in thickness, so add a little more or less coconut or almond flour as needed.
- The dough should be sticky enough to roll but firm enough to hold its shape.
- If the dough is too soft to roll, chill it for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Swap the maple syrup for honey if you prefer (they won’t be vegan).
- Any other nut butter works in place of the peanut butter.
Storage
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months.
