Chocolate Peanut Butter Bites
If you have a sweet tooth, this recipe is for you! It satisfies those cravings for rich sweet treats without kicking you out of ketosis.
In fact, there are just 5 grams net carbs in each serving. A serving is about two pieces and trust me, two pieces are enough!
Since they are made with both cream cheese and peanut butter, they will fill you up (and keep you feeling full, too).
The best part is the chocolate. They remind me of a richer version of Reese’s peanut butter cups!
But since they’re wrapped up in keto tortillas and air fried, they have a satisfying crunch, too! Keep reading and I’ll share some essential tips so that you make them perfectly the first time!
Air Fryer Peanut Butter Bites
I love using my air fryer! It makes everything perfectly crispy without using lots of grease or oil.
Plus, the clean-up is really easy too. My air fryer basket is dishwasher-friendly, so I just pop it in,
Easy! But the best part about it is how they cook these cream cheese peanut butter bites.
The tortillas get perfectly crispy! You bite into them with a crunchy outside and rich, creamy filling!
If you love how crispy and sweet these are, then make some Keto Air Fryer Cinnamon Sugar Twists next! They taste like churros!
Keto Peanut Butter Bites
What size tortillas can you use to make them? Honestly, any size will work!
I used large keto tortillas. But if you use smaller ones, you’ll just have to use more of them. It’s really no problem at all.
And if you want to change things up, use keto white chocolate chips or keto dark chocolate chips. For a little extra flair, dunk them into some keto whipped topping at the end.
Talk about delicious!
Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Bites
Are you allergic to peanut butter? Then I suggest making these scrumptious bites with a seed butter, like Sunbutter.
You can also make them with some natural almond butter, too. If you’re going to make them with peanut butter, read the ingredient label.
Some brands of peanut butter sweeten them or use unhealthy oils in them. It’s best to use natural peanut butter because it won’t have extra oils (which are unhealthy sources of fat).
Keto Desserts
Serve these peanut butter bites with other low-carb desserts if you’re hosting a party. They will taste delicious with keto mug cheesecake and if you want to serve the bites with another rich dessert, No-bake gingerbread fudge has scrumptious spices and a creamy texture.
Some of my favorite ones are keto chocolate chip pumpkin cookies, keto chocolate chip cookie skillet, and the refreshing keto mint chocolate chip ice cream. Make any of these whenever you start craving chocolate.
