I think we can all agree that peanut butter is like, the best thing that has ever happened to mankind (neck and neck with chocolate, of course).  Honestly, any nut butter is pretty darn amazing, but peanut butter just has an incredibly unique flavor.  It’s smooth, it’s addictive, it’s memorable.  So it’s a given that any peanut butter lover would like peanut butter chips!  Too bad those seemingly innocent little morsels are incredibly bad for you.  From the dangerous hydrogenated oil, highly refined sugars or artificial flavor, those peanut butter chips are a diet buster that your body doesn’t even know how to begin digesting (don’t worry, I won’t divulge in the GI system functions any longer).  Just trust me.  Those storebought chips are bad bad bad.
So I made these homemade Peanut Butter Baking Chips.  These are good good good.  It’s healthier and cheaper than anything you could buy at the grocery store, and requires only three ingredients!  I love baking with these homemade chips, they pack a serious punch of peanut butter flavor yet have less calories than the storebought brand.  And even better, this homemade version is sugar free, low carb and vegan (oh, but you would never know!)

    I’ve done this before with oat flour and protein powder.. Not as sweet, obviously, but still really darn good.
