Introduction

These high protein frozen peanut butter Greek yogurt bites are a delicious and nutritious snack that combines creamy yogurt, rich peanut butter, and smooth chocolate. They’re easy to make and perfect for a refreshing treat any time of day.

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
• 1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter (such as PB2)
• 1 tsp coconut oil
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s brand)
• Flaky sea salt (optional, for topping)

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
2. Step 2: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, portion the yogurt mixture into evenly sized bites (about 6). Place them in the freezer for 10–20 minutes until firm.
3. Step 3: While the bites freeze, melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler. Stir regularly until smooth and liquid.
4. Step 4: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate, coating thoroughly. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired. Place the coated bites in the fridge to allow the chocolate to set completely.
5. Step 5: Once the chocolate has set, the bites are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in the fridge for 3–4 days.

Tips & Variations

• Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture and richer flavor.
• Swap maple syrup for honey or agave syrup if preferred.
• Try different nut butters, such as almond or cashew, for variety.
• Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of vanilla extract to the yogurt mixture for extra flavor.
• If you prefer a thicker chocolate coating, let the chocolate harden for a few minutes and dip the bites a second time.

Storage

Store the peanut butter yogurt bites in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3–4 days. For longer storage, keep them in the freezer and allow them to soften slightly before eating. Reheat is not necessary as they are best enjoyed cold or frozen.

FAQs

Can I use non-dairy yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Yogurt Mixture

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

Chocolate Coating

• 1 tsp coconut oil
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (Lily’s brand recommended)
• Flaky sea salt (optional, for topping)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the full fat Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well blended, ensuring an even distribution of all ingredients.
2. Form and Freeze the Bites: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Use a medium cookie scoop or spoon to portion the yogurt mixture into approximately 6 evenly sized bites. Place the tray in the freezer and let the bites freeze for 10-20 minutes until they feel solid to the touch.
3. Melt the Chocolate for Coating: While the bites freeze, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler method. Stir regularly to achieve a smooth, liquid chocolate consistency without burning.
4. Dip and Set the Chocolate-Coated Bites: Once the yogurt bites are fully frozen, dip each bite into the melted chocolate ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Optionally, sprinkle flaky sea salt over the coated bites before the chocolate hardens to add a savory contrast. Place the coated bites in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to fully set.
5. Serve and Store: After the chocolate coating has hardened, the yogurt bites are ready to be enjoyed. Store any leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days to maintain freshness and texture.

Notes

• Use full fat Greek yogurt for a richer and creamier texture.
• Powdered peanut butter helps increase protein content while reducing fat.
• Melting chocolate with coconut oil makes the coating smoother and easier to dip.
• Sprinkling flaky sea salt enhances the flavor by providing a balance to the sweetness.
• These bites should be kept refrigerated or frozen until serving to maintain texture.
