Step-by-Step Instructions for Gourmet Peanut Butter Easter Eggs
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine coconut flour and maple syrup, stirring until fully blended. Add natural peanut butter and mix until smooth and creamy.
  2. Form egg shapes from the filling, about the size of a small chicken egg, and place on a lined baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  3. Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, heating in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  4. Dip each egg into the melted chocolate, ensuring a thorough coating, then let excess chocolate drip off back into the bowl.
  5. Sprinkle flaky salt over the coated eggs before they set. Allow to cool until the chocolate sets, about 15-20 minutes.
  6. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks.
