Healthy Healthier Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls

Healthier Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls

This healthier version is made clean using natural peanut butter with just peanuts (possibly salt), almond flour, cleaner chocolate, coconut sugar or honey (your choice), sea salt, and coconut oil.
Servings: 24 balls
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fine blanched almond flour
  • 1 cup natural peanut butter smooth or crunchy, from a new jar at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar OR 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt unless you have salted peanut butter
  • 1 cup Hu Gems or Enjoy Life Mega Chunks or Dark Chocolate Morsels
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Method
 

  1. Line a 13 x 9 baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, stir the almond flour, peanut butter, coconut sugar or honey, and salt until well combined. You want the mixture to stick together so it forms into balls. If it's hard to roll them, put the dough in the freezer for 5-10 minutes first.
  3. Scoop out spoonful's of dough and roll into 24-26 balls.
  4. Place the rolled balls in the lined baking dish. Put the dish in the freezer for 20 minutes.
  5. Melt your chocolate and coconut oil. You can use the double boiler method or use the microwave. I use the microwave since it's the easiest. I place the chocolate and coconut oil in a small bowl. I do 30 seconds - stir it - 30 seconds stir it - and 20 seconds.
  6. Roll balls one at a time in the melted chocolate. Use a spoon or a fork (I find a fork easier) to pull each ball up the side of the dish. You do need to move somewhat quickly so the chocolate does not harden. Place the dipped balls back in the lined baking dish.
  7. Store in the freezer until ready to eat. They keep for an extra long time in the freezer, but I can assure you that they won't last that long. ENJOY!
