Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Yield 10 - 15 chocolate eggs

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter or allergy friendly substitute
  • 1/4 cup protein powder or oat flour or almond flour
  • 1/8 tsp salt (optional)
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (Here's a Keto version)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (or the healthy chocolate sauce recipe above)

Instructions

  • If peanut butter is not already soft, gently warm it until easy to stir. Combine nut butter, flour, optional salt, and pure maple syrup to form a dough. Depending on the specific ingredients you choose, you may need to add more peanut butter if the mixture is too dry or more flour if too wet. Use your hands to form eggs or shapes of choice. Refrigerate while you carefully melt the chocolate chips or prepare the chocolate sauce. Dip eggs into chocolate, place on a parchment lined plate, and chill to set the coating. These chocolate peanut butter eggs can be left out on the counter in a cool place for a few hours. It is best to store leftovers in the refrigerator or freezer.
