Protein-Packed Frozen Peanut Butter Yogurt Bites
Creamy, protein-packed frozen treats that taste like dessert but keep you satisfied. Just four simple ingredients and ten minutes of prep for a freezer stash you'll reach for again and again.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt full-fat or 2%
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips optional
- Flaky sea salt for topping optional
Instructions
- Line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or use a silicone mold. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until completely smooth with no streaks, about 1-2 minutes. If peanut butter is stiff, microwave it for 10 seconds first.
- Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed. Remember it should taste slightly sweeter than you'd like since freezing dulls flavors.
- If using chocolate chips or mix-ins, fold them in gently until evenly distributed.
- Use a tablespoon-sized cookie scoop or teaspoon to portion mixture into prepared molds, filling each about three-quarters full. Smooth tops with back of spoon.
- Add any toppings like flaky sea salt or extra chocolate chips, pressing gently to adhere.
- Freeze on a flat surface for at least 3 hours until completely solid.
- Pop bites out of molds and transfer to an airtight container or freezer bag with parchment paper between layers. Store in freezer for up to 6 weeks.
Notes
STORAGE: Keep frozen in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers for up to 6 weeks. They're soft enough to bite into straight from the freezer.
SUBSTITUTIONS:
- Use almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter
- Swap honey for maple syrup (vegan option)
- For dairy-free: use thick coconut yogurt from a can
