Homemade vegan peanut butter chips – easy to make, impossible to stop eating, and without all the artificial ingredients! 

pin-it

These homemade peanut butter chips take less than a minute to make…

And they literally MELT in your mouth!

But be warned: they are quite possibly more addictive than the most addictive thing you’ve ever eaten.

Try them in this Chickpea Cookie Dough Dip

You only need 3 ingredients for these melty pb chips.

However, you will want to eat them all without sharing, so be sure that you plan accordingly.

Throw them into desserts with chocolate chips, or add a handful to these Baked Oats, for a breakfast that tastes like chocolate peanut butter cake.

Making your own vegan peanut butter chips is a much healthier option than picking up a package of peanut butter chips from the store.

There are no partially-hydrogenated oils, refined sugar, artificial flavors, or corn syrup solids in these vegan peanut butter chips, and they honestly do taste a million times better.

Once you try homemade, you will never go back!

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp coconut oil or cacao butter
  • 1/2 cup peanut flour, or 1/4 cup nut butter of choice
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup, or for sugar free: replace the maple with 1 extra tbsp oil and stevia drops to taste

Instructions 

  • *To make the homemade chips look exactly like real packaged peanut butter chips, I used and recommend this Chocolate Chip Candy Mold.
    Peanut butter chips recipe: Melt the first ingredient if it’s not already liquid. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, and stir well to form a paste. (Note: I personally much prefer the taste of the chips when made with coconut oil. However, use the cacao butter if you wish to bake with the chips.) Smooth into candy molds or onto a sheet of wax or parchment paper, and freeze until solid. If using the wax/parchment option, break chips into pieces once firm. The coconut version of these vegan peanut butter chips should be stored in the freezer; the cacao butter version can be stored in the fridge, freezer, or at room temperature.

    Oh my gosh you are my best friend! I am addicted to peanut butter chips and now I have a healthy, fast, and easy version? Like I said, I already loved your blog, but now … 🙂
    Would these work in cookies or brownies?
    Thanks and pinning!

    1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

      Yes, the cacao butter version.

  2. Anna @ Your Healthy Place says:

    Ooh I love that you made these with peanut flour! I can only imagine how melt-in-your-mouth they are – coconut oil has that effect on everything. Amazing!

  3. Caitie says:

    First thought when I saw these: “Oooh, I bet you could melt one or two of these into your oatmeal and it would be awesome!” (As I usually enjoy my overnight oats with PB2). Second thought: “O.O For once, I actually have EVERYTHING I need to make something. Must make now!” Haha, it sounds like a pretty cool idea. Can’t wait to try it out. 😀

  4. Rebecca says:

    Oh my goodness, this recipe just made my day! I had all the ingredients (I went with the coconut oil) on hand and I’m about to eat the entire batch without sharing! They are so yummy!

  5. Hannah says:

    I want this. 0_0

    Food thieves? Only when I’ve got one of these recipes cooked up in my freezer, then yes, I definitely worry about food thieves! 😉 Only my mother and sisters, though.

  6. jenlp says:

    yup, this is delicious!

  7. Clarissa says:

    These look amazing!! Could you please make butterscotch chips??

    Also, do you think you can bake with these chips, or are they strictly for snacking?

    1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

      Cacao butter version is good for baking.

  8. Sarah McBride says:

    Theses are really creative and look awesome! Thanks for putting this one out there : ) My old job had food thieves, once you get over the grossness, its pretty funny!

  9. Sadye says:

    I don’t worry about food thieves, though one did steal half of my lunch once. I sort of had to laugh, because the thief left my carrots but took the bagel … guess the thief wasn’t interested in a balanced diet!

  10. Carolyn says:

    love it! does pb2 work?

  11. Allie C. says:

    I bet these would be awesome made with honey and a sprinkle of salt. Yum yum yum.

  12. Mel Bowman says:

    I’d love to see a “what’s in my pantry/fridge” post. Your recipes are so awesome, I always want to run and try them immediately. Unfortunately, I almost *never* have all the ingredients on hand (I’ve never even heard of peanut flour). I’ve been collecting various things over the last several months I’ve been following you, but I feel like there’s still a lot I’m missing.

    1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

      I have a general list of staples on my “recipe faq” page.

      I’ve thought about doing a “what’s in my pantry” post in the past, but the truth is that it always changes! 🙂

      1. Anonymous says:

        Oh, I hadn’t seen that. I’ll go look. Thanks!

        I made your flourless chocolate chip cookie recipe yesterday and OH it was so good! And that batter!

  13. Mellissa says:

    Can you make this with regular organic peanut butter (just peanuts and salt)?

    1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

      You can… the texture is just more melty.

  14. Sean Cane says:

    Um. How does delicious sound! These look awesome.

  15. Anonymous says:

    Why can’t you use regular plain old peanut butter instead of powder? Wouldn’t that taste better, or absorb the other ingredients better?

    1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

      Nope. The texture is actually better with peanut flour, although it technically does work with regular peanut butter.

  16. Aviva says:

    Hi can’t wait to make these! Can you bake with the Peanut Butter Chips??

    1. Chocolate Covered Katie says:

      The cacao version.
