Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup natural creamy peanut butter
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together peanut butter, almond flour, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until a thick dough forms.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough per buckeye and roll into balls. Place on prepared baking sheet.
- Freeze the peanut butter balls for 20 minutes to firm up.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

Notes
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
- For a sweeter version, add more maple syrup as desired.
