Description
Delicious and easy chocolate-covered peanut butter eggs made with natural ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup peanut butter (natural)
- ½ cup almond flour
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips (dark, vegan)
- 1 tsp coconut oil
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, almond flour, maple syrup, and salt. Mix until a thick dough forms.
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and shape it into egg shapes with your hands. Place the eggs on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet.
- Transfer the shaped eggs to the refrigerator and chill for about 30 minutes, or until firm.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Alternatively, use a double boiler.
- Using a fork, dip each chilled egg into the melted chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off. Place the coated eggs back onto the parchment-lined tray. At the end, you can also drizzle more chocolate in a design on the surface of the eggs.
- Refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until the chocolate coating is fully set. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Notes
- Make sure to use natural peanut butter for the best flavor and texture.
- The eggs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
