Peanut Butter and Jelly Fat Bombs

I say peanut butter, you say jelly. Peanut butter—> JELLY –>Peanut butter—> JELLY.

That’s right, we made everyone’s favorite sandwich into peanut butter and jelly fat bomb! You guys, it tastes just like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich! We knew before nut butter cup week started that we had to do a peanut butter and jelly version and by-golly, it is delicious!

We love the peanut butter + jelly combo on Fit Foodie Finds. I feel like we’ve taken a lot of our favorite meals and made a delicious PB + J variation!

Ingredients 

Peanut Butter Layer (bottom layer)

Jelly Layer (top layer) 

Instructions 

  • First, line muffin tin with nonstick cupcake liners and set aside.
  • Prepare the peanut butter layer by placing peanut butter, melted coconut oil, vanilla, maple syrup, and chopped peanuts into a medium-size bowl and mix until combined.
  • Using a tablespoon as your scoop, scoop a heaping tablespoon of batter into each muffin liner. Repeat until you’ve evenly distributed into 12 liners. Set aside.
  • Prepare jelly drizzle by placing jelly into a small bowl and microwaving for 30 seconds to a minute. Stir.
  • Carefully drizzle 1 teaspoon of jelly over the top of each peanut butter cup. Use a fork or toothpick to swirl the jelly into the peanut butter.
  •  Top with additional chopped peanuts and place in freezer for 20 minutes or until firm.
  • Enjoy!

Tips & Notes

  • If your batter isn’t easily poured into the cupcake tin, add more melted coconut oil. You do not want your batter to be too thick and sometimes thickness is dependent on how oily your nut butter is.
  • Option to replace maple syrup with honey or liquid stevia.
  • Option to replace peanut butter with any other nut butter such as cashew or almond.
  • Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Would substituting butter for the coconut oil work? Iโ€™m allergic to coconut oil.

Can you make this without the coconut oil?

Hi! I wouldn’t suggest it, as the coconut oil is what makes these peanut butter cups!

PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIIIIIIIME! I wish I enjoyed more peanut butter and jelly sandwiches as a kid rather than grilled cheese sandwiches, but hey, both did the job. Definitely have a stronger love for peanut butter than I did as a child, so I have to make up for lost times! Would this recipe also work with sunflower seed butter? It’s all I have right now so I’ll have to buy crunchy peanut butter later!
