Ingredients

For the Peanut Butter Filling

  • 1 ¼ cups natural runny peanut butter
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • ⅓ cup almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

For the White Chocolate Coating

  • 8 ounces white chocolate melting wafers
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil
  • ½ teaspoon blue spirulina
  • ¼ teaspoon matcha powder

For the Speckles

  • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Mix peanut butter, maple syrup, powdered sugar, almond flour, vanilla, and salt in a bowl until smooth and moldable.
  • Scoop about 2 tablespoons of mixture, roll into balls, and shape into egg ovals on a parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Freeze the eggs for about 10 minutes until firm enough for dipping.
  • Whisk cocoa powder and water in a small bowl to make the speckle mixture and set aside.
  • Melt white chocolate with coconut oil in 15–20 second microwave intervals, stirring until smooth, then whisk in spirulina and matcha for color.
  • Insert a toothpick into each chilled egg, dip in melted chocolate, let excess drip off, place back on the tray, and remove the toothpick.
  • Flick the cocoa mixture over the eggs with a pastry brush from about 8 inches away to create speckles.
  • Refrigerate about 10 minutes until the chocolate coating is firm.
