Healthy Peanut Butter Buckeyes Recipe. Delicious sand healthy peanut butter buckeyes without butter or powdered sugar<\/strong>! My healthy peanut butter balls are made with coconut flour, peanut butter, maple syrup, sea salt, and vanilla extract. Rolled up into a delicious peanut butter ball and dipped in 70% dark chocolate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It is baking season and I am making all the delicious classic cookie recipes with healthier ingredients! One of the most classic holiday recipes are peanut butter balls. I made my peanut butter balls with healthy ingredients and the best thing... they still taste the same! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n My Healthy Peanut Butter Buckeyes Recipe is:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Craving ice cream but in a healthy way? Try my Thick Smoothie Bowl Recipe<\/a><\/strong>! Smoothie bowls are a super quick, easy and healthy no bake dessert recipe to satisfy your sweet tooth immediately<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Buckeyes are a no bake treat made from peanut butter, vanilla, and sweetener. They are half dipped in chocolate. Buckeyes are super creamy, indulgent and an easy holiday cookie recipe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n My healthy buckeyes each have 124 calories, 7 grams of carbs, 6 grams of protein, 9 grams fat (2.6g polyunsaturated, 4.4g monounsaturated), and 2 grams of fiber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n REST DOUGH FOR 15 MINUTES BEFORE ROLLING<\/strong>. Resting peanut butter balls dough allows the coconut flour to absorb any liquid and prevent the dough from sticking to your hands. If your peanut butter balls are sticky, try adding some coconut flour to absorb excess liquid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n PLACE ROLLED BUCKEYES ON A PARCHMENT LINED TRAY. <\/strong>This will prevent them from sticking after you dip them in chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n REFRIGERATE BUCKEYES BEFORE DIPPING IN MELTED CHOCOLATE<\/strong>. The chocolate will harden and stick to the buckeyes better if you refrigerate them first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Healthy peanut butter buckeyes with no sugar are made with just 6 good for you ingredients!<\/p>\n\n\n\n In a bowl, mix together:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n NOTE: you can add more maple syrup if you like them sweeter! If I am serving them to guests who like them sweeter, I usually use 3 rather than 2 tablespoons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mix well to combine and rest for 15 minutes<\/strong>. Resting allows the coconut flour to absorb as much liquid as possible and makes it much easier to roll the dough into balls!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Roll the dough into 14 equal sized balls and place the balls on a parchment or non stick baking sheet lined cookie tray. If you want to make them smaller, you could definitely get more out of the recipe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Place the tray in the fridge for an hour before dipping them in chocolate. Chilling the peanut butter balls helps the melted chocolate stick and harden on the outside better than if they were at room temperature.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Melt 3.5 ounces of dark chocolate. You most likely won't use this much, but you need about this much to have the chocolate deep enough to dip the ball in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dip each healthy peanut butter ball half way in the melted dark chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Place chocolate dipped peanut butter balls back in the fridge and let the chocolate completely harden before serving or storing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Store your healthy peanut butter buckeyes in the fridge for up to a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Make sure to store them in an airtight container lined with parchment paper. The parchment paper helps to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the container!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Frequently asked questions about my healthy peanut butter buckeyes recipe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n HOW TO MAKE HEALTHY BUCKEYE BARS?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Mix all the batter together. Press the batter into a parchment lined square dish. The larger the dish, the thinner the bars will be. Drizzle melted chocolate across the top. Store in the fridge covered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n CAN YOU USE NATURAL PEANUT BUTTER FOR BUCKEYES?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n CAN I MAKE ALMOND BUTTER BUCKEYES?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes! Simply replace the peanut butter with almond butter. Almond butter buckeyes will have a more subtle, yet nutty, flavor than peanut butter buckeyes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n HOW LONG DO BUCKEYES LAST?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n You can store my buckeye's in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for up to a month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n IS COCONUT FLOUR GOOD FOR YOU?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes! Coconut flour is made from dried and ground coconut flesh. It is a great healthy alternative to wheat flour for those who are gluten intolerant or wanting to try different flours. Coconut flour is high in fiber, and a good source of iron and medium chain fats. Medium chain fats have been linked with healthy benefits like brain health and weight loss (when eaten in moderation). <\/p>\n\n\n\n You're going to love these Healthy NO BAKE Treats Recipes<\/a> next!<\/strong><\/strong> Bite Sized Delights!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you try my Healthy Peanut Butter Buckeye Recipe<\/strong>, please let me know your thoughts by leaving a rating and comment below!
