Description

These Homemade Peppermint Patties are a delightful, paleo-friendly treat featuring a smooth peppermint-flavored filling coated in rich dark chocolate. Naturally sweetened with monk fruit and made with coconut flour and coconut oil, these patties are perfect for a refreshing, low-sugar dessert or snack.

Ingredients

Filling

  • 1 cup powdered monk fruit sweetener (or powdered sugar for a non-paleo option)
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk

Chocolate Coating

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (or sugar-free chocolate chips)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for chocolate coating)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the powdered monk fruit sweetener or powdered sugar, coconut flour, melted coconut oil, peppermint extract, and unsweetened almond milk. Stir the ingredients well until the mixture forms a thick, dough-like consistency.
  2. Form the patties: Scoop out approximately one tablespoon of the mixture, roll it into a ball, then flatten it into a disc shape. Repeat this process with the remaining filling mixture.
  3. Freeze the patties: Place the formed discs on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze them for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up properly.
  4. Melt the chocolate coating: While the patties are freezing, melt the dark chocolate chips and one tablespoon of coconut oil together. Use a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or melt in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between intervals until smooth.
  5. Coat the patties: Once the patties are fully firm, dip each one into the melted chocolate, ensuring full coverage. Place the coated patties back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Set the chocolate coating: Freeze the chocolate-coated patties for an additional 15-20 minutes so the coating can fully set and harden.
  7. Serve and store: Enjoy your homemade peppermint patties immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

  • For a non-paleo version, replace monk fruit sweetener with powdered sugar.
  • Use sugar-free chocolate chips if you want to keep the patties low-sugar.
  • Ensure the patties are completely firm before dipping in chocolate to avoid melting or cracking.
  • Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge to maintain freshness.
  • Adjust peppermint extract to taste for a stronger or milder peppermint flavor.
