Snack time doesn’t get any easier than this! These keto peanut butter balls are fantastic just as they are or rolled in chopped nuts or keto-friendly chocolate chips.

Some say that peanut butter isn’t the best choice for a keto diet, but you can’t go wrong if you stick to all-natural. I love peanut butter everything.

These little tasty jewels have only 3.3 net carbs, so go ahead and indulge…a little. Try not to eat the whole batch!

Why I Love Keto Peanut Butter Energy Balls

I love peanut butter everything. For real. Before I switched to the keto diet, I would eat peanut butter right out of the jar by spoonfuls.

I still love peanut butter, and these keto peanut butter energy balls are a quick and perfect midday keto snack if you’re on the run or just need a little sweet fix. I love that they have protein in them.

Just pop these little keto energy balls in your mouth and go. Snacking doesn’t get much easier than this!

What You Need to Make Keto Peanut Butter Balls

These keto peanut butter energy balls require only 4 simple ingredients. You can omit the vanilla and make them with only 3 ingredients.

How to Make Keto Peanut Butter Balls
