Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • Natural creamy peanut butter (unsweetened, no added sugar)
  • Almond flour (super-fine for best texture)
  • Powdered erythritol or powdered allulose (keto-friendly sweetener)
  • Coconut flour (optional, for extra structure)
  • Vanilla extract
  • Fine sea salt (skip if peanut butter is salted)
  • Unsweetened shredded coconut (optional mix-in or coating)
  • Chopped peanuts or keto-friendly chocolate chips (optional)
  • Coconut oil or butter (helps bind and smooth texture)
  • Dark sugar-free chocolate (for dipping or drizzling, optional)

Method
 

  1. Stir the peanut butter. Make sure it’s smooth and well mixed. If it’s stiff, microwave for 10–15 seconds to loosen.
  2. Combine the dry ingredients. In a bowl, whisk almond flour with powdered sweetener. If you’re using coconut flour, start with 1 teaspoon.
  3. Mix the dough. Add peanut butter, a splash of vanilla, a pinch of salt, and 1–2 teaspoons of melted coconut oil or butter. Stir until it forms a soft dough that holds together.
  4. Adjust texture. If too sticky, add a little almond flour or a pinch more coconut flour. If too dry, add a bit more peanut butter or coconut oil.
  5. Fold in extras. Stir in chopped peanuts, shredded coconut, or a handful of keto chocolate chips if you like.
  6. Chill briefly. Pop the bowl in the fridge for 10–15 minutes. This makes rolling easier.
  7. Roll into balls. Use a small scoop or spoon to portion, then roll into 1-inch balls with your hands.
  8. Optional chocolate coating. Melt sugar-free chocolate with a touch of coconut oil. Dip each ball, let excess drip off, and set on parchment.
  9. Set and store. Chill for 20 minutes to firm up before serving.
