Ingredients:
- 1 cup (250g) natural creamy peanut butter
- 0.75 cup (90g) finely ground oat flour
- 3 tbsp (60g) raw honey
- 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp (1.5g) fine sea salt
- 1 cup (175g) dark chocolate chips (70% cacao)
- 1 tbsp (15g) coconut oil
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the natural peanut butter, raw honey, vanilla extract, and fine sea salt. Stir until the mixture is completely uniform.
- Slowly fold in the oat flour. Mix until a pliable dough forms that does not stick to your fingers. If the dough is too oily, add extra flour one tablespoon at a time.
- Place the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to stabilize the fats, which makes rolling easier.
- Roll the chilled dough into 24 uniform spheres (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the rolled spheres for another 30 minutes in the freezer. This ensures the chocolate sets instantly upon contact.
- Melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together using a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler until smooth.
- Using a toothpick or fork, dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, leaving a small circle of peanut butter visible at the top (Buckeye style).
- Return the balls to the parchment paper and let them sit until the chocolate shell is firm and shattering.
