Ingredients:
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (creamy, sugar-free)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup powdered erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions:
- Prepare the Peanut Butter Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, softened butter, almond flour, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until everything is fully mixed and smooth.
- Shape the Balls: Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, roll the peanut butter mixture into 1-inch balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once you’ve shaped all the mixture, place the tray in the freezer for about 30 minutes, or until the peanut butter balls are firm.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Dip the Buckeyes: Remove the peanut butter balls from the freezer. Using a toothpick, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, leaving a small portion of the peanut butter exposed on top. Place the dipped buckeyes back onto the parchment-lined tray.
- Chill and Serve: Once all the balls are dipped, refrigerate for 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Enjoy these creamy, low-carb Buckeyes as a delicious keto treat!
