Recipe by Teri-Ann Carty
Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond flour
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ cup Perfect Protein Elevated Brain Booster
- 1 cup organic crunchy peanut butter*
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla
- 1½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tsp olive oil
- Flaky sea salt
*You can use crunchy or smooth peanut butter – both will work! You can also use your favourite nut or seed butter instead.
Directions:
-
Place a piece of parchment paper on a cookie sheet and set aside. Make sure you have enough room in your freezer for the cookie sheet to lie flat.
-
Add almond flour, protein powder and salt to a bowl. Stir to combine.
-
Add peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until fully combined.
-
Use a spoon to scoop up approximately 2 tbsp of dough. Shape the dough into an egg shape with your hands. Place on the cookie sheet and place in the freezer to chill for about 30 minutes.
-
Melt chocolate in the microwave in 30 second increments until smooth. Add a tsp of olive oil (coconut oil works too) and stir until glossy.
-
Use a fork to dip the peanut butter egg into the chocolate. Coat on all sides. Tap any excess chocolate off the egg and place back on the parchment paper.
-
Drizzle the top with any remaining chocolate and sprinkle tops with flaky sea salt.
-
Place back in the freezer for 1 hour. Enjoy! Best stored in the freezer.
