High Protein Frozen Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites Recipe

Introduction

These High Protein Frozen Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites are a perfect blend of creamy, nutty, and chocolatey flavors. Easy to make and packed with protein, they offer a deliciously refreshing snack or dessert that’s guilt-free and satisfying.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (full fat)
• 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter (such as PB Fit, PB2, or similar)
• 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s)
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil
• Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
2. Step 2: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, portion the yogurt mixture onto the surface, aiming for about six evenly sized bites. Freeze for 10–20 minutes, or until firm to the touch.
3. Step 3: While the bites freeze, melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Use a microwave or double boiler, stirring frequently until the chocolate is smooth and runny.
4. Step 4: Once the yogurt bites are solid, dip each one thoroughly into the melted chocolate. Optionally, sprinkle with flaky sea salt before the chocolate sets. Place the coated bites in the refrigerator to let the chocolate harden completely.
5. Step 5: After the chocolate has set, the bites are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in the fridge for 3–4 days for best freshness.

Tips & Variations

• For a nut-free version, try substituting the peanut butter with sunflower seed butter and use a nut-free powdered alternative.
• Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup to suit your taste.
• Use different flavored Greek yogurt, such as vanilla, for a twist on the flavor profile.
• Try topping the bites with chopped nuts or a drizzle of additional peanut butter before freezing for extra texture.

Storage

Store the frozen peanut butter yogurt bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep well for 3 to 4 days. For best texture, allow them to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before eating. Avoid refreezing once thawed to preserve quality.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Yogurt Mixture

• 1/2 cup full fat Greek yogurt
• 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 (e.g., Lily’s)
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Optional Topping

• Flaky sea salt

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 everything together thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined, ensuring an even distribution of ingredients.
2. Form and Freeze the Bites: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, portion out the yogurt mixture onto the prepared surface, aiming to create about 6 evenly sized bites. Place the tray in the freezer for 10 to 20 minutes or until the bites are solid to the touch.
3. Melt the Chocolate for Coating: While the yogurt bites freeze, melt the dark chocolate chips together with the coconut oil. This can be done in the microwave in short bursts, stirring regularly, or over a double boiler until the mixture is smooth and liquid.
4. Dip and Set the Chocolate-Coated Bites: Once the bites are solid, dip each one into the melted chocolate to fully coat it. Immediately sprinkle with flaky sea salt if using. Place the coated bites in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate shell to set completely.
5. Serve and Store: After the chocolate has set, the frozen peanut butter Greek yogurt bites are ready to enjoy. For best quality, store any leftovers in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days, keeping them fresh and delicious.

Notes

• Use full fat Greek yogurt for creaminess and better texture.
• Powdered peanut butter helps reduce fat while maintaining peanut flavor.
• The dark chocolate coating can be customized with different types of chocolate if preferred.
• Flaky sea salt is optional but adds a nice balance to the sweetness.
• These bites are best enjoyed chilled or frozen.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
