Vegan Peanut Butter Chips
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.View Nutrition Facts

Are you looking for recipe testers? Because I am super excited for your cookbook!!:)
I’m still not sure how to ask for recipe testers :-?.
You know my stance on muffins : they are simply cupcakes without hats. So peanut butter? Chocolate chips? Definitely crazystupidlove worthy. You need to get in on this.
We had a regular gentleman at our office who stole everyone’s lunches. He would look thru until he found a container that looked good and he would proceed to eat it. (Course he stole everything else in the place that wasn’t nailed down also) One way to definitely deter thiefs, as well as find the culprit, is to fill the dish with X-lax instead of chocolate. It won’t take long for them to give up taking lunches. Works every time!!
Oh yum. These, in your healthy chocolate chip cookies.
With dark chocolate chips, and some chopped ricemilk chocolate.
They didn’t last long 🙂
I did make these! They are fabulous! They are sweet enough that you don’t need to finish entire batch…I even made the mistake of letting my husband try a piece…now he knows I have them somewhere..my fault, I know. Yum!
Hi Katie,
I was just dying to comment on you asking about having thieves who steal coworkers lunch. Well, we have this problem frequently. I am thankful as I try and keep my lunch in an insulated cooler but, a few of the girls have had bites taken out of their lunches and put back. Also we had one girl who got a cheesecake for Christmas and someone took a whole hunk out of it and left the rest to where it didn’t even make you want to touch it for fear they didn’t even wash their hands or who knows how they went to get the piece they wanted!! Just so repulsive, it makes me wonder why and where they learn these things from??
Finally, I just wanted to share I love ALL your creative and very yummy features on here. I haven’t tried all of them or I think I would need to spend more time at my Crossfit and Spin Class..lol. Thank you so much and appreciate you trying to make things healthy and tasty!! You are so incredibly talented! 🙂
Made this with natural peanut butter (peanut & salt only kind). Dangerously awesome! I’ll be using these chippies on my yonanas creations. 😉
Hi! Do you know the ratio? Mine just melt after taking them out the freezer
Would this work with olive oil? I’m allergic to coconut! 🙁
I can’t wait to make these. Could you tell me where you got your mold for these. I would think the mold has to be on the small side and I can only find the med-size you would use to make chocolates. Thank-you, Suzie
Michaels craft stores have small ones in the cake decorating section.
Katie do you think this peanut butter chip recipe could be converted to Cinnamon chips easily? Could I just add cinnamon if I made it with the cacao butter? ( I can’t eat gluten, casein/dairy or soy)
Thanks.
Sorry when I sent question about making cinnamon chips from this recipe I wanted to ask what you thought I might be able to use in place of the peanut flour. Obviously that wouldn’t taste right in a cinnamon chip. Thanks.
Hi Katie,
I was wondering if you could do something similar substituting the peanut butter for cocoa and a couple drops of mint for making minted chocolate chips? Also is there any difference between powdered peanut butter and peanut flour? The brand of virgin coconut oil I have has a stronger coconut smell are there others that are less “scented”
Thank you for your time answering my questions,
Julie
ou can definitely do cocoa chips. https://lett-trim.today/2012/01/15/three-ingredient-chocolate-bars-1/%3C/a%3E%3Cbr /> Try Whole Foods 365 coconut oil. It is the best, and tastes much better than ones like Tropical Source. No weird aftertaste.
This is such a clever idea! I don’t buy powdered peanut butter anymore just due to personal preference but I do have carob powder around. I am going to experiment and try making chocolate chips instead. Might add in some walnut butter that I just made too. Thanks for the rad post! I always love reading your stuff. 🙂
I’m in the UK, couldn’t wait to try this, its hard to get hold of peanut flour here though.
I have found this website that sells PB2, which Katie mentions here, its powdered peanuts, which are then pressed to remove most of the fat.
When I made this recipe using normal peanut butter (I also used less coconut oil) the butter chips were yummy, if a little greasy. So using PB2, should make them just how I imagine (dream) them to be!
The website is: http://unsportsnutrition.co.uk
I just ordered my PB2 from there, can’t wait! 🙂
Thanks Katie, for all these amazing recipes!
Do you think I could sub the peanut flour for finely ground peanuts?
I was already content with one peanut butter recipe then you came up with more & more I cannot keep up. Please do not delete these recipes. I would like to try them all. Thank you.
