Make these creamy vegan Copycat Reece's Peanut Butter Easter Eggs for Easter dessert! These plant-based eggs are full of peanut butter flavor and still completely vegan and gluten-free.
I present to you the much healthier version of Reece's peanut butter Easter eggs.
These eggs are completely plant-based, gluten-free, and refined sugar free. They even have an extra burst of protein.
AND they taste great!
They're a burst of creamy peanut butter covered in chocolate. You'll never buy Reece's eggs again!
Step 1. Mix the peanut butter, peanut powder, and maple syrup in a medium bowl.
Step 2. Shape the mixture into tablespoon-sized flattened eggs. Place in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to solidify.
Step 3. Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate.
Step 4. Dip each egg into the chocolate, then arrange on a parchment lined pan. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts to decorate. Then place in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to solidify. Serve and enjoy!
You can sub almond powder, almond flour, oat flour, or regular all purpose flour in place of the almond powder. If you use all purpose flour, you need to heat treat the flour before using it.
If you use all purpose flour, you must heat treat it before consuming it. By heating the flour before consuming it, you are reducing the pathogens that build up in flour during its shelf-life. Bacteria like E. Coli can live in raw flour until it is baked. So you never want to eat flour raw.
It IS okay to eat oat flour and almond flour raw, so there's no need to heat treat those.
To heat treat all purpose flour, spread the flour evenly on a baking sheet and place in a 300°F oven. Stir every 2 minutes until the flour reaches 65°F.
Store these eggs in the refrigerator or freezer. Avoid leaving the eggs on the counter for too long to prevent melted chocolate.
These eggs will last for several weeks in the fridge and several months in the freezer.
Praise the Lord for He is risen! We celebrate your resurrection this day. Amen.
