Servings: 12 balls
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter unsweetened
- ½ cup coconut flour or as needed
- ¼ cup powdered erythritol and monkfruit sweetener or prefered sweetener, adjust to taste
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl combine the peanut butter, coconut flour, powdered sweetener, and vanilla to form a thick dough. If the mixture is too sticky, add a little more coconut flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined plate or tray. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.
Notes
- As an option, roll peanut butter balls in shredded coconut or crushed peanuts.
- Store peanut butter balls in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or individually wrap and store in zip bags in the freezer for up to 6 months.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 cup of sugar-free chocolate chips and 2 teaspoons of coconut oil in 30-second increments until melted.
- Dip each peanut butter ball into the chocolate to coat, allow excess to drip off and place it on a clean piece of parchment paper.
- Sprinkle with flaky salt if desired. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until set.
