Ingredients
For the yogurt mixture:
- 1/2 cup greek yogurt (full fat)
- 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter (like pb fit, pb2, or similar brands)
- 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
For the chocolate coating:
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as lily’s)
- 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 (pb powder), creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth and well-combined mixture, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
- Form and Freeze the Bites
Line a plate or a small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or spoon, scoop the yogurt mixture onto the prepared surface. Aim to create evenly sized portions; this recipe should make around 6 bites. Place the bites in the freezer for 10-20 minutes or until they are solid to the touch.
- Melt the Chocolate for Coating
While the bites are freezing, melt chocolate chips with a bit of coconut oil. Use a microwave or a double boiler to melt them, stirring regularly, until you have a smooth, liquid chocolate mixture.
- Dip and Set the Chocolate-Coated Bites
Once the yogurt bites are solid, dip each one into the melted chocolate to coat thoroughly. Sprinkle each with flaky sea salt before the chocolate sets, adding a touch of savory flavor. Place the coated bites in the fridge to allow the chocolate to set completely.
- Serve and Store
After the chocolate has set, your yogurt bites are ready to enjoy. For optimal freshness, store any remaining bites in the fridge for 3-4 days. These make for a delightful and refreshing treat!
