Healthy Peanut Butter filled Chocolate Eggs are everything you love about a traditional Reese’s without the excess sugar! Made with wholesome ingredients these vegan eggs are the perfect treat for everyone!

Hello friends, first and foremost these Healthy Peanut Butter filled Chocolate Eggs are my current favorite chocolate treat! I have one a day… The kids love them too! I realize there is a lot of peanut allergies out there. The good news is that you can use any nut or seed butter you want! As a peanut butter lover, it has and will always be my number 1!

These Healthy Peanut Butter filled Chocolate Eggs are simple to make! I used peanut butter, maple syrup, and coconut flour for the filling. To shape the eggs I find it is easiest to use a cookie dough scoop and then shape the egg from there. For the chocolate, I melted together chocolate chips and coconut oil. I told you this is an easy recipe!

Healthy Peanut Butter filled Chocolate Eggs are best stored in the fridge and will last up to 4 weeks. 

How do you easily coat peanut butter eggs

The easiest way to do this is with a spoon and fork. Place your egg on top of your spoon and submerge into the chocolate, make sure to coat both sides. Transfer it to your fork and place it on parchment paper and sprinkle with a little salt.

Healthy peanut butter substitutions

The best nut-free substitute is sunflower seed butter. Sometimes it can run a little thinner than peanut butter and you will need to adjust the amount of coconut flour, try adding 1 tsp at a time.
