Copycat Reese’s Peanut Butter EggsEaster is almost upon us and that is when we start to see the candy come out.  Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs are one of those Easter treats. So I made you some copycat vegan Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs.

I had a hard time even locating the ingredients in the actual Reese’s Peanut Butter eggs online.  That should be a red flag right there!  I am sure they are less than ideal.  S

o I thought I would come up with a homemade version of Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs. It’s easier than you think!  My Copycat Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs only have 5 ingredients.

 

Copycat Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs

These copycat Reese’s peanut butter eggs are not only easy, they are vegan, gluten free and grain free.  If you choose to use my 3 ingredient chocolate instead of the chocolate chips and milk, they would end up being pretty low carb as well.

I put the peanut butter in the title in quotations because I actually used almond butter for my batch.  You can use any nut butter or even sunflower butter as well.

    Recipe Notes

    If you store these in the fridge, they will become slightly soft. I suggest storing them in the freezer.

    1. You're the best at creating simple recipes! I always love coming to your blog because I know I can actually make your food, not just Pin it and never follow through. Haha!
    2. I agree with Jenni! Your recipes are always so easy to make & from ingredients many people already have in their pantry. Thanks :)
      1. I wish I knew what some of the ingredients were. I don't know what coconut flour is, or almond milk or almond butter (or pecan butter as one said). Is this a "gluten free" persons cupboard? Cause I am lost.
        1. You can use regular flour. Just use 2 tablespoons instead of a 1/4 cup. You can also use regular milk and peanut butter.
        2. Some of the ingredients you can get at the Dollarama. Most of the others I get at a local, Bulk Barn. You can even make your own Peanut, pecan and almond butter by putting the nuts in your blender and blend till you get the consistency of peanut butter.
    3. Do you think subbing regular AP flour for the coconut flour would work as well? We're not GF, plus it's one less thing for me to buy!
    4. Have you ever tried melting down and using the enjoy life semi sweet chips or their new dark chocolate ones? I can't wait to make these! You are amazing!
      1. I have used their semi sweet chocolate chips many times. I haven't seen the dark chocolate ones yet. I will look for those!
    5. thank you for posting pictures of the preparation process! when i see it step by step like this, it really helps me feel like i can actually do it myself :) these sound and look delicious!!
    6. Wow Melissa! Another super-yummy recipe. For sure am going to try this. My granddaughter is going gluten free and would love these as Easter treats !! :)
    7. I'm so excited to try these out! Do you think there would be much difference if you used honey instead of maple syrup, or even a combination of the two? I'm almost put of syrup and I don't think I can wait... :)
    8. I feel kinda goofy for asking, but are the measurements for coconut flour and almond milk, teaspoons or tablespoons? :P
