Instructions

Enable step-by-step mode

In a large bowl, mix peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond flour, and salt until a thick dough forms; if dough is too sticky, add 1 tbsp more of almond flour
Roll into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet
Freeze for 20-30 minutes
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 20-second increments, stirring each time, until smooth
Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated; Use a fork to lift out and let excess chocolate drip off
Once the chocolate has just set but is still tacky, roll each truffle in the powdered sugar and powdered peanut butter mixture until well coated
Let the truffles set in the fridge for about 15 minutes before serving
Enjoy!!

Notes

• Use thick peanut butter for the best texture. If the dough is sticky, add a little extra oat flour.
• Freeze the truffles before dipping so the chocolate sets smoothly.
• Let chocolate get tacky for 1–2 minutes before rolling in powdered sweetener to prevent melting.
• Dip with a fork so excess chocolate drips off cleanly.
• Oat flour gives the softest texture, but almond flour works too.
• Powdered monkfruit keeps them refined-sugar-free without changing the flavor.
• These taste even better the next day once the coating sets and the flavors develop.
• Store chilled so they stay firm, clean and perfect for snacking.
• Freeze up to 2 months for an easy grab-and-go treat.
