High Protein Frozen Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites Recipe

Introduction

These high protein frozen peanut butter Greek yogurt bites are a delicious, healthy snack that’s easy to make at home. Creamy Greek yogurt combined with peanut butter and coated in rich dark chocolate creates a perfect balance of flavors and textures.

Ingredients

• 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
• 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 Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir until smooth and well combined.
2. Step 2: Line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, scoop the yogurt mixture onto the prepared surface to form about 6 evenly sized bites. Place in the freezer for 10–20 minutes until solid.
3. Step 3: While the bites freeze, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together using a microwave or double boiler. Stir regularly until smooth and liquid.
4. Step 4: Once the yogurt bites are solid, dip each one thoroughly in the melted chocolate. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt before the chocolate sets. Place the coated bites in the fridge to let the chocolate harden completely.
5. Step 5: After the chocolate has set, the yogurt bites are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in the fridge.

Tips & Variations

• Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and richer flavor.
• Swap maple syrup with honey or agave syrup if preferred.
• For a nut-free version, try sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter.
• Add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the yogurt mixture for extra flavor.

Storage

Store the finished bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3–4 days. They can also be kept in the freezer for longer storage; just thaw slightly before eating. Reheat is not necessary as they are best enjoyed cold and firm.

FAQs

Can I use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt?

Yes, you can use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt, but the texture may be less creamy and the bites less rich in flavor. Full-fat yogurt gives the best taste and consistency.

What if I don’t have powdered peanut butter?

If you don’t have powdered peanut butter, you can use regular creamy peanut butter only, but the bites may be a bit heavier and less airy. Adjust sweetness as needed to taste.

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 (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 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 the ingredients until smooth and well combined, ensuring an even distribution of flavors throughout the mixture.
2. 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 into evenly sized bites—this recipe yields about 6 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 bites are freezing, melt 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon coconut oil using either a microwave or double boiler. Stir frequently until you achieve a smooth, liquid chocolate mixture, suitable for dipping.
4. Dip and Set the Chocolate-Coated Bites: Once the yogurt bites are firm, dip each one thoroughly into the melted chocolate to coat evenly. Optionally, sprinkle each bite with flaky sea salt before the chocolate sets for a perfect sweet-salty balance. Place the coated bites in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to fully harden.
5. Serve and Store: After the chocolate has set completely, the yogurt bites are ready to enjoy. For best freshness, store any leftovers in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. These bites make a refreshing and nutritious treat anytime.

Notes

• Use full fat Greek yogurt for creaminess and enhanced flavor; low-fat options might alter texture.
• Powdered peanut butter reduces overall fat content while keeping the peanut flavor prominent.
• Maple syrup can be substituted with honey or agave nectar as desired.
• Ensure bites are fully frozen before dipping to prevent melting.
• Flaky sea salt is optional but adds a nice contrast to the sweetness and richness.
• Store bites in an airtight container in the fridge to maintain freshness.
