Are you ready for more no bake keto dessert recipes? It is that time of the year, it is hot and nobody want to start the oven. Well, I am ok in New Zealand as its winter but I know most of you read from a summer part of the globe. So I can’t see better than those no bake peanut butter balls to share.
No bake recipes are great to fix your sweet tooth very quickly on keto diet. Unfortunately most recipes calls for sugar-free liquid sweetener , not always easy to find in store. Good news, this peanut butter balls healthy recipe don’t! Let’s check the 4 easy ingredients you need to make those delicious balls.
This is very easy to create homemade sugar-free powdered sweetener. First, add sugar-free crystal sweetener – erythritol or Monk fruit – into a blender. Make sure you fully cover the blade or it won’t work. Then, blend on high speed for 30 seconds -1 minute. Your crystal sweetener will turn into an icing sugar texture, with NO carbs and NO sugar! Finally, store your powder in an airtight container in the pantry for up to 3 months. Use this as you would use icing sugar. It makes delicious cake glazing like in my keto lemon pound cake recipe.
Those no bake peanut butter balls turn into buckeye peanut balls keto-fyed very easily! All you need is to dip your ball into melted sugar-free dark chocolate. A buckeye peanut butter ball is not fully covered by chocolate. The trick to achieve this perfect result is to insert a toothpick in the middle of the ball. Then, use the toothpick as a guide to roll the ball into the sugar-free melted chocolate without adding some on top. Finally, close the little hole left by the toothpick with your finger. Also, freeze your ball to set the chocolate quickly. I always place the balls on a plate covered with parchment. It is the easiest way to remove the balls from the plate without breaking the chocolate shell.

These turned out so yummy! I didn’t have sugar free chocolate. To sub I melted half a bar of 86% cacao chocolate I ha, in a double broiler. I love dark chocolate and peanut butter, this definitely hit the spot!
Thanks for he lovely feedback. I love dark chocolate too and any chocolate with more than 85% cocoa is keto friendly so you are all good here! Enjoy the recipes on the blog, XOXO Carine
I made these just like your recipe and I have to say, they do not contain enough swerve at all. They are way too peanut buttery- I think the ratio is just off. Most other recipes call for a lot more of the substitute confectioners sugar to get more of a true Buckeye texture and taste.I just feel like I am eating a ball of peanut butter. Just wanted to warn other people making this recipe in case they were looking for something a little truer to e regular buckeye.
I am sorry you didn’t enjoy the recipe. If you have a sweet tooth you can increase sweeteness using stevia drops. Many people enjoy the recipe so I guess it depends of everyone taste. I hope you find more recipe you love on the blog, Enjoy! XOXO Carine
