Healthy Reese's Peanut Butter Pumpkins
These adorable pumpkin candies inspired by the classic Reece's cups are the cutest and most delicious Halloween candy to make this season🤩 They are packed with pumpkin and peanut butter flavor, and have added plant protein.
Ingredients
Pumpkin Protein Candy
- ¾ cup creamy natural peanut butter 190g
- ½ cup pumpkin puree 125g
- ½ cup vegan protein powder I used PBfit Pumpkin Spice
- ½ cup almond flour 25g
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
- pinch of cinnamon and salt
Chocolate Coating
- ½ cup vegan white chocolate chips
- ½ tablespoon coconut oil
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Add all of the candy ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Transfer to a clean surface and use a rolling pin to roll into an even layer about ½ inch (~1.5 cm) thick. I recommend refrigerating the mixture here so it hardens and it's easier to work with.
- Use a mini pumpkin shaped cookie cutter to cut out mini pumpkins.
- Melt the vegan white chocolate, add the coconut oil, and mix well. Coat each pumpkin fully in the chocolate, then place on a parchment-lined plate and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens.
- Dig in and enjoy! Store an airtight container in the fridge.
