Peanut Butter Easter Eggs a Wholesome Homemade Treat

Easy peanut butter Easter eggs are a natural version of the popular Easter treat. Made with just four ingredients (natural peanut butter, molasses, coconut flour and good, dark chocolate).

  • Author: Crosby’s Molasses
  • Prep Time: 5 minutes
  • Cook Time: 10 minutes
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 20 eggs 1x
  • Category: Candy & Sweet Treats

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2/3 cup all natural peanut butter
  • 1 Tbsp. Crosby’s Fancy Molasses
  • 12 Tbsp. coconut flour
  • 150 g dark chocolate*
  • Sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl blend the peanut butter, molasses and coconut flour to create a dough. It should be stiff enough that you can gather it into a ball with your hands.
  2. Using a half tablespoon measure, scoop the dough into the spoon and press it firmly until the edge is flat.  Nudge it out with your thumb, place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and press one side to create an egg shape.
  3. Set in the freezer for 20 minutes.
  4. While the eggs are chilling, melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
  5. Working quickly, drop one egg at a time into the chocolate. Lift it out with a fork, flat side down, and place back on the cold baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle with decorations. (The chocolate will set quickly.)
  6. Store in the fridge or a cool place.

 

*You won’t use all of the chocolate but you’ll need the melted chocolate to be deep enough to dip.

    Just made these and needed to add about 1/2 cup of coconut flour and still too runny so I added 1/2 cup of icing sugar. They’re delish!

    I just made these with milk chocolate.
    You could use any nut butter or sunflower butter.
    I buzzed up some unsweetened coconut in my spice grinder to make coconut flour.
    I used some icing in a tube to put our initial on each and some silver balls to make them look festive. Can’t believe we haven’t any sprinkles!
    Really nice recipe, thanks!
