Ingredients
Peanut Butter Base -
- 39 g (1/4 cup + 2 tbsp) Powdered Peanut Butter (PB2)
- ¼ cup Water
- 28 g (1 scoop) Unflavored Protein Powder (Quest Baking)
- 30 g (1/4 cup) Oat Flour (Higher Harvest H-E-B)
- 30 ml (2 tbsp) Sugar Free Syrup (Mrs Butterworths)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Chocolate Layer -
- 80 g (1 bar) Sea Salt Dark Chocolate Bar (Gatsby’s)
- ¾ tbsp Coconut Oil
To Top -
- Rainbow Sprinkles
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add in your powdered PB + water and mix until you get a creamy consistency. Then add in the remaining ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.
- Scoop out a tbsp full (mine were ~24g each) and lightly dust with some oat flour to make easier to roll. Roll into a ball, and shape to create an egg shape. Add to a parchment lined plate. Freeze for 15 mins.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, add in your chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave at 30 second intervals until melted.
- Use two forks and dip each egg into the chocolate. It will harden quick so move fast. Place onto a plate, drizzle each top with more chocolate and sprinkle with sprinkles.
- Keep refrigerated and enjoy throughout the week!
