High Protein Frozen Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites Recipe

Introduction

These high protein frozen peanut butter Greek yogurt bites make a delicious and healthy snack. Creamy, chocolate-coated, and lightly sweetened, they’re perfect for a refreshing treat anytime. Plus, they’re easy to prepare and satisfy your sweet tooth without the guilt.

Ingredients

• 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
• 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 until smooth and well 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 around 6 evenly sized bites. Freeze for 10-20 minutes until firm.
3. Step 3: While the bites are freezing, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave or double boiler. Stir regularly until smooth and liquid.
4. Step 4: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate to coat 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 is set, the bites are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days.

Tips & Variations

• For a dairy-free option, try using coconut yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.
• You can substitute the maple syrup with honey or agave syrup based on preference.
• Try rolling the yogurt bites in crushed nuts or granola before freezing for added texture.
• If your chocolate hardens too quickly while dipping, gently reheat it in short bursts to keep it smooth.

Storage

Store the finished yogurt bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, keep them in the freezer and thaw a few minutes before eating. Reheat is not necessary; just enjoy chilled or slightly softened.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use regular peanut butter instead of powdered peanut butter?

Yes, you can use all creamy peanut butter, but the texture might be less firm, and the bites may take longer to freeze completely.

What if I don’t have coconut oil for melting the chocolate?

You can melt the chocolate without coconut oil, though adding it helps create a smoother coating and prevents the chocolate from hardening too quickly.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

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 (e.g., 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 Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter, 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter, and 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
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 about six evenly sized bites. Place them on the prepared surface and freeze for 10-20 minutes, or until firm to the touch.
3. Melt the Chocolate for Coating: While the bites freeze, melt 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon coconut oil using a microwave in short bursts or a double boiler, stirring frequently until smooth and liquid.
4. Dip and Set the Chocolate-Coated Bites: Once the yogurt bites are solid, dip each into the melted chocolate ensuring full coverage. Optionally sprinkle flaky sea salt on each bite before the chocolate sets. Place the coated bites in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to harden completely.
5. Serve and Store: After the chocolate sets, the bites are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for 3-4 days to maintain freshness.

Notes

• Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and better flavor.
• Powdered peanut butter reduces fat content but still gives excellent peanut flavor and protein.
• Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
• Flaky sea salt is optional but enhances the chocolate’s flavor with a salty contrast.
• These bites are best stored in the fridge rather than the freezer once coated to keep the chocolate from cracking.
