Ingredients

Scale

Filling

1/2 cup creamy, unsweetened peanut butter
1 Tbsp honey
1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp almond flour

Assembly

Approx. 48 plain or salted pretzel twists

Topping

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Prepare baking sheet: Line a medium-sized baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
Mix peanut butter and honey: In a large mixing bowl, stir together the peanut butter and honey until fully combined and smooth.
Add almond flour: Pour almond flour into the peanut butter mixture and stir until the mixture resembles a soft cookie dough. Adjust by adding more almond flour if too runny or more peanut butter if too crumbly; the dough should hold together easily.
Form pretzel sandwiches: Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture and place it on one pretzel. Top with a second pretzel to create a sandwich. Remove any excess mixture around the edges and return it to the bowl.
Arrange on baking sheet: Place all pretzel sandwiches on the parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer.
Melt chocolate: Place the dark chocolate chips in a small bowl or ramekin and microwave in 30-second increments, stirring well between each session until smooth and fully melted. This should take around 2 minutes.
Dip pretzel bites: Dip one half of each pretzel bite into the melted chocolate and return it to the baking sheet. Repeat until all bites are coated.
Chill and set: Transfer the baking sheet to the fridge and let the chocolate harden for about one hour before serving or storing.

Notes

You can use plain or salted pretzels depending on your salt preference.
If the peanut butter mixture is too soft to handle, chilling it briefly can help firm it up.
Store the bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Use dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa for a healthier option with less sugar.
For a nut-free version, try sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter and check pretzel ingredients for allergens.
