Description
Deliciously healthy peanut butter balls made with natural ingredients, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup natural creamy peanut butter (no sugar added)
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (or honey/maple syrup)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (70% or sugar-free)
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
- Mix the Base: In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, sweetener, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Use a spoon or spatula to stir everything together until smooth and well mixed.
- Create the Dough: Gradually fold in the coconut flour. Keep mixing until a thick, pliable dough forms. If the mixture feels too sticky, you can add a little more coconut flour until you reach the right consistency.
- Shape the Balls: Line a tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, take about 1 tablespoon of the dough and roll it into a smooth ball. Place the balls on the prepared tray. Once you’ve shaped all the dough, place the tray in the freezer for about 15–20 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the Chocolate: While the balls are chilling, melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Use a microwave-safe bowl and heat them in the microwave, stirring every 20 seconds until the mixture is smooth.
- Dip the Balls: Once the peanut butter balls are chilled, take them out of the freezer. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it thoroughly. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing it back on the tray.
- Set the Chocolate: After dipping all the balls, place them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or back in the freezer for about 10 minutes until the chocolate becomes firm.
- Enjoy or Store: Your Healthy Reese’s Peanut Butter Balls are now ready to enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
