- 1 ½ tbsp unsalted butter
- ½ cup peanut butter
- 1 tsp allulose
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the required ingredients for your no bake peanut butter coconut bites. Line a baking tray with wax paper to prevent sticking and make removal easy.
- Melt Butter: Place the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl and melt it in the microwave until fully liquefied but not boiling, ensuring smooth mixing.
- Combine Peanut Butter: Stir the peanut butter into the melted butter until completely blended and smooth, creating the base mixture.
- Add Sweetener and Flavor: Mix in the allulose and vanilla extract into the peanut butter and butter mixture thoroughly, then fold in the unsweetened coconut flakes evenly.
- Form Bites: Using a spoon or small scoop, spoon the mixture onto the lined baking sheet, forming bite-sized morsels spaced apart.
- Chill to Set: Place the baking tray in the freezer for about 10 minutes to let the bites firm up. Once set, enjoy your no bake peanut butter coconut bites.
Notes
- Allulose is used as a low-calorie sweetener substitute here; you can replace it with sugar or honey if preferred.
- Use natural peanut butter for a healthier option without added sugars or oils.
- Store leftover bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For an extra crunch, consider adding chopped nuts or seeds to the mixture.
- If coconut flakes are large, consider chopping them finer for better texture.
