Healthy Reeses Recipe
Homemade reeses are so easy to make, much better for you and so very delicious! You'll never want to go back to the store bought version.
Ingredients
Peanut Butter "Dough"
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup hemp hearts
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
Chocolate
- 4 oz chocolate of choice
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- kosher salt for sprinkling on top
Instructions
Make the peanut butter dough
- In a small mixing bowl combine peanut butter, maple syrup/honey, almond flour and hemp hearts.
- On a parchment paper lined baking sheet, shape the dough into one large square, or divide the dough into individual patties.
Melt and Coat Chocolate
- Add chocolate and coconut oil to a microwave safe dish. Microwave in thirty second bursts, mixing in between until the chocolate is runny.
- Either pour melted chocolate over the peanut butter dough (if making bars) or leave in the bowl and one by one coat the peanut butter patties formed earlier.
- Sprinkle with coarse salt if desired.
- Place coated peanut butter bars/patties into the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.
- Store in the fridge for up to a week, if you can make them last that long :)
Notes
Depending on how runny your peanut butter is, you may need to add a bit more almond flour. If it's still runny and sticky after 1/2 cup, add in more almond flour 1 tbsp at a time until the dough forms a cohesive ball.
