Ingredients

• 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 0.25 cup Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Oat flour
• 1 cup Dark chocolate chips (vegan)
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 2

Gradually add the oat flour to the peanut butter mixture, stirring until a dough-like consistency is achieved. The mixture should not be too sticky but should hold together well when pressed.

Step 3

Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll it into small balls with your hands.

Step 4

Place the peanut butter balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat the process until all the mixture is used.

Step 5

Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and let the peanut butter balls chill for about 20 minutes to firm up.

Step 6

In a small saucepan or a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil, stirring until completely smooth.

Step 7

Once the peanut butter balls are firm, dip each one into the melted chocolate to coat it completely. You can use a fork or dipping tool for ease.

Step 8

Place the chocolate-coated peanut butter balls back onto the parchment-lined sheet. Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of each ball while the chocolate is still wet.

Step 9

Return the sheet to the refrigerator and allow the chocolate to set, which will take about 10 minutes.

Step 10

Once the chocolate has hardened, transfer the vegan peanut butter balls to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept in the fridge for up to a week.
