Toppings (OPTIONAL)

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl: combine the creamy peanut butter, oat flour, coconut sugar, and sea salt. Stir well until you reach the consistency of cookie dough. See notes!
    ½ cup creamy peanut butter, ¼ cup oat flour, 2 tablespoons coconut sugar, ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
  • Pour in the brown rice cereal. Drizzle the maple syrup on top. Combine everything.
    1 cup brown rice cereal, 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • Coat your hands with coconut oil to avoid sticky ingredients. Scoop out  a tablespoon of filling. Press each one into the curve of a spoon to form an egg shape. Smooth out the edges with your fingertips. Set each mound aside on a foil-lined mini baking tray. Freeze for at least 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a double boiler. Stir well with a fork. 
    1.5 cups dark chocolate chips, 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • Remove the “eggs” from your freezer and coat them with a generous amount of chocolate. Immediately, decorate with sprinkles and freeze again (at least 10 minutes), or until the outer shell is hard. ENJOY!
    flaky sea salt, sprinkles galore

Notes

  1. If your peanut butter is extra runny, add 1 tbsp. of oat flour. Alternatively, you can add 1 tbsp. of peanut butter at a time, if your filling is too dry and crumbly.
  2. Coconut oil in the chocolate coating helps the outer shell harden.
  3. I recommend using chocolate chips sweetened with coconut sugar. Guittard makes a delicious variety!
  4. MALDON! It is the best flaky sea salt, by far. I sprinkle it on all of my dishes—sweet and savory alike!
  5. Natural peanut butter tends to separate. Be sure to stir it well before adding to the final product.
  6. You can choose any natural nut butter! Almond or cashew would work particularly well.
  7. These chocolate peanut butter "eggs" are easy to store in the fridge or freezer!
