Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup protein powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup dark chocolate (for coating)
Instructions
- Mix the Peanut Butter Base: In a bowl, combine the natural peanut butter, maple syrup, protein powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is well blended and smooth.
- Shape the Eggs: Using your hands, shape the mixture into egg shapes and place them on a parchment-lined tray. Aim for about 2 tablespoons of the mix per egg for a uniform size.
- Chill the Eggs: Freeze the shaped eggs for about 30 minutes, or until they are firm enough to handle without losing shape.
- Melt the Chocolate: While the eggs are chilling, melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler.
- Coat the Eggs: Dip each firm peanut butter egg into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated, then lift them out with a fork.
- Chill Again: Place the coated eggs back on the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, which should take about 15 minutes.
- Enjoy: Once the chocolate is set, your healthy Reese’s eggs are ready to enjoy!
Notes
For easier mixing, ensure the peanut butter is at room temperature. Keep the eggs uniform in size for even coating.
