These Peanut Butter Balls are easy to make, no bake, gluten free, vegan and made with minimal whole ingredients!
Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Course Desserts & Sweets, Snack
- 1½ cup peanut butter (the runny kind-I used Nuts for You)
- ⅔ cup pure maple syrup
- 1½ cup crispy brown rice (I used Nature’s Path)
- pinch of sea salt
- 1 bag vegan chocolate chips (Lily’s Sweets)
- 1½ tbsp coconut oil (Dr Bronner’s is the best)
- maldon sea salt for garnish (optional but tastes SO GOOD)
Mix together peanut butter, maple syrup, and sea salt until well combined. Add-in crispy rice until very well mixed.
Transfer bowl to fridge for 20-30 minutes to firm up.
Roll into 1” balls and place on a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set in the freezer for another 30 minutes.
In the meantime prepare your chocolate. I used a double boiler but could easily microwave in 30 second increments until fully melted. You may need to add more coconut oil if your chocolate is too thick.
Dip balls into chocolate, sprinkle with Maldon sea salt and place back in the freezer to set. I store them in an airtight container in the freezer because they taste best cold.
