Ingredients

1 cup oat flour
3/4 cup drippy peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
9 oz chocolate chips I used Lily’s chocolate chips
2 tsp coconut oil
Optional: chocolate drizzle and sprinkles

Instructions

Make the peanut butter filling. In a medium bowl, combine oat flour, peanut butter, vanilla and honey mixing well with a spatula or an electric mixer until all combined and the dough is smooth.
Shape into eggs. Using a small cookie scoop, scoop and shape into small eggs. I used these silicone egg molds to get perfectly shaped eggs, but you could also use your hands. Press the peanut butter mixture into each cavity, cover and chill or shape the mixture into small egg forms and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You should get about 16 eggs.
Chill eggs. Place the egg molds (or the baking sheet) into the freezer and chill for about 20-30 minutes until firm.
Melt the chocolate. Pour chocolate chips and coconut oil into the pot of a double boiler, or you can simply use a metal or glass bowl on top of a saucepan with about an inch of water in it. As the water heats up, the chocolate will begin to melt and you should continually stir it with a spatula until nice and smooth. You can also heat the chocolate in the microwave at 30 second intervals until melted.
Dip and coat. If using the egg molds, simply pop each egg out before dipping. Using a dipping fork, or regular fork, dip each peanut butter egg into the melted chocolate, making sure they are completely coated. Place the chocolate dipped eggs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Decorate and chill. This is optional, but you can also drizzle the eggs with colored chocolate and top with fun sprinkles. Or just leave them as is (like Reese's eggs) and store them in the freezer until ready to enjoy.
