Ingredients
Scale
Yogurt Mixture
- 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
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare Yogurt Mixture: In a medium bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup together until smooth and well combined.
- Fill Molds: Spoon the yogurt mixture into silicone molds or an ice cube tray, gently packing it down to remove air pockets.
- Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil in short bursts, stirring between each burst until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
- Freeze Yogurt Bites: Place the filled molds in the freezer and let the yogurt mixture set for about 1 hour until firm.
- Coat with Chocolate: Carefully remove the frozen yogurt bites from the molds. Dip each bite into the melted chocolate until fully coated.
- Set the Coating: Return the chocolate-coated bites to the freezer for another 30 minutes to harden the chocolate coating before serving.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creaminess and better texture.
- Powdered peanut butter reduces fat content while maintaining flavor and protein.
- Lily’s dark chocolate chips are a great low-sugar option.
- For easier removal, lightly grease silicone molds or use non-stick trays.
- Store the bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
