Yogurt Mixture
- 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
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix the Greek yogurt, powdered peanut butter, creamy peanut butter, and maple syrup until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Fill Molds: Spoon the yogurt mixture into silicone molds or an ice cube tray, pressing gently to pack the mixture evenly into each compartment.
- Freeze the Yogurt Bites: Place the filled molds in the freezer and let them set for about 1 hour until they are firm enough to handle.
- Melt the Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips together with the coconut oil in short bursts of 15-20 seconds, stirring between each until smooth and fully melted.
- Dip the Frozen Bites: Carefully remove the frozen yogurt bites from the molds. Dip each bite into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. You may use a fork or toothpick to help with dipping.
- Freeze to Harden: Return the chocolate-coated bites to the freezer and let them freeze for an additional 30 minutes or until the chocolate has hardened completely.
Notes
- Use silicone molds or an ice cube tray for easy removal of the yogurt bites.
- For a less sweet version, reduce the amount of maple syrup or substitute with a natural sweetener of choice.
- Store the finished bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
- These bites make a great post-workout snack or a healthier dessert alternative.
