Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Mixture
- 1/2 cup full fat Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter (such as PB2 or PB Fit)
- 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s brand)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- Flaky sea salt (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup full fat Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter, 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter, and 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup. Stir until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
- Form and Freeze the Bites: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, portion the yogurt mixture onto the lined surface, aiming for about 6 evenly sized bites. Place the tray in the freezer for 10-20 minutes until the bites are firm to the touch.
- Melt the Chocolate for Coating: While the bites are freezing, melt 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips together with 1 teaspoon coconut oil. Use a microwave in short intervals or a double boiler, stirring regularly until you achieve a smooth, liquid chocolate mixture.
- Dip and Set the Chocolate-Coated Bites: Once the yogurt bites are solid, dip each bite into the melted chocolate ensuring full coverage. Optionally sprinkle flaky sea salt on top before the chocolate sets. Place the coated bites in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to harden completely.
- Serve and Store: Enjoy the frozen peanut butter Greek yogurt bites once the chocolate has set. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for 3-4 days to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Use full fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture and better taste.
- Powdered peanut butter reduces fat while maintaining peanut flavor, but regular peanut butter can be adjusted if preferred.
- To melt chocolate smoothly, avoid overheating by stirring frequently.
- Flaky sea salt enhances the sweet and salty flavor combination but is optional.
- Store bites in an airtight container in the fridge to prevent moisture buildup.
