Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Mixture
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (full fat)
- 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Mix until the ingredients are smooth and well blended, creating a creamy and uniform mixture.
- Form the Bites and Freeze: Line a plate or small tray with parchment paper. Scoop the yogurt mixture into about six evenly sized portions and place them on the tray. Freeze for 10 to 20 minutes until the bites are firm enough to handle.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in short bursts, stirring between each session, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Coat the Yogurt Bites: Dip each frozen yogurt bite into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is completely covered. Optionally, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top of the coated bites to enhance the flavor.
- Set the Chocolate: Place the chocolate-coated bites back onto the parchment-lined tray. Refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes until the chocolate sets completely, then enjoy your high-protein frozen treats.
Notes
- The bites can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 month; thaw slightly before eating for best texture.
- Using full-fat Greek yogurt adds creaminess and richness to the bites.
- Powdered peanut butter reduces fat content while maintaining peanut flavor.
- Feel free to substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup as preferred.
- To avoid condensation buildup, freeze bites thoroughly before dipping into the chocolate.
