You will love these keto buckeyes once you see how easy they are to prepare. Here is everything you need to do to enjoy one of the best keto sweet treats that you will ever try:

1. Add the peanut butter, vanilla, melted butter, and salt into a mixing bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the sweetener and peanut flour and mix until well combined.
3. If the dough looks too sticky, wrap it in plastic foil and refrigerate it for 10 minutes.
