Gluten-Free Vegan Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs (Ultimate Easter Treat; Nut-Free Option!)

  • Author: Elsa
  • Total Time: 45 minutes (including chill time)
  • Yield: 12 eggs 1x

Description

These no-bake vegan peanut butter eggs are a healthy twist on the classic Easter treat—made with simple, clean ingredients like natural peanut butter, coconut flour, and dairy-free chocolate. They’re easy to make, gluten-free, and perfect for snacking or gifting.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ¾ cup natural creamy peanut butter (or sunflower seed butter for nut-free version)
  • 2–3 tablespoons maple syrup (or agave/honey if not vegan)
  • 2–3 tablespoons coconut flour
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 cup vegan chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (72% cacao or higher)
  • Optional: Coarse sea salt, melted white vegan chocolate for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Make the dough: In a medium bowl, mix the peanut butter, maple syrup, and 2 tablespoons of coconut flour. Stir until a sticky dough forms. If the mixture is too loose, add up to 1 tablespoon more coconut flour.
  2. Shape the eggs: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough per egg. Shape into ovals and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
  3. Freeze: Place the tray in the freezer for 20–30 minutes until firm.
  4. Melt the chocolate: Use a double boiler or microwave to melt the vegan chocolate, stirring frequently until smooth.
  5. Dip the eggs: Use a fork to dip each chilled egg into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Return to tray.
  6. Decorate (optional): Sprinkle with sea salt or drizzle with melted white vegan chocolate before the coating sets.
  7. Refreeze: Freeze the tray again for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is fully set. Store in the fridge or freezer.

Notes

Use a peanut butter that is runny but not overly oily. Stir it well before measuring. These eggs can be made ahead and stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.
