These High Protein Frozen Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites are a perfect blend of creamy yogurt, rich peanut butter, and dark chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale

Yogurt Mixture

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (full fat)
  • 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter (such as PB Fit or PB2)
  • 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup

Chocolate Coating

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s)
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Form and Freeze the Bites: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, scoop the yogurt mixture into evenly sized portions, making about 6 bites. Place the tray in the freezer for 10-20 minutes until the bites are solid to the touch.
  3. Melt the Chocolate for Coating: While the bites are freezing, melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Use a microwave in short bursts or a double boiler, stirring frequently until you have a smooth and liquid chocolate mixture.
  4. Dip and Set the Chocolate-Coated Bites: Once the yogurt bites are solid, dip each one into the melted chocolate to coat thoroughly. Optionally, sprinkle each with flaky sea salt before the chocolate sets. Place the coated bites in the fridge to allow the chocolate to set completely.
  5. Serve and Store: After the chocolate has fully set, the frozen peanut butter Greek yogurt bites are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in the freezer for easy snacking later.

Notes

  • For best results, use full-fat Greek yogurt to ensure creaminess and taste.
  • Powdered peanut butter helps reduce fat content while maintaining that strong peanut flavor.
  • You can substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup if preferred.
  • Try using different types of dark chocolate, but aim for at least 70% cocoa for a richer taste and less sugar.
  • The bites are best stored in the freezer and consumed within 1-2 weeks for optimal freshness.
