Ingredients
  

For the Buckeyes
  • 1 1/3 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup natural peanut butter Use natural peanut butter for the best flavor.
  • 1/4 tsp salt Only if peanut butter isn't salted.
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla
For Dipping
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Use vegan chips for a vegan version.
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, mix together almond flour, peanut butter, salt, maple syrup, and vanilla.
  2. Roll the mixture into balls and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Dipping
  1. In a small bowl, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave in 30-second increments.
  2. Once melted, use a fork to lower the balls into the chocolate, covering 2/3 of the ball in chocolate.
  3. Lift the balls back out and place on a tray. Repeat until all are dipped.
  4. Place balls in the fridge for at least 15 minutes before eating.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 weeks, or freeze for up to a month. Let excess chocolate drip off the fork before placing dipped balls on the tray to avoid puddles.
