Main Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup peanut butter (or nut butter of choice)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Chocolate Coating
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon avocado oil
- Sea salt for sprinkling (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare yogurt mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Form bites: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a tablespoon, drop scoops of the yogurt mixture onto the sheet, spacing them evenly to prevent sticking.
- Freeze bites: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 4 hours or until the yogurt bites are completely solid and firm to the touch.
- Melt chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with avocado oil in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Coat and set: Remove frozen yogurt bites from the freezer. Dip each bite into the melted chocolate to coat thoroughly. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired. Place coated bites back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for an additional 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
Notes
- Use any nut butter you prefer, such as almond or cashew butter, as a substitute for peanut butter.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute the Greek yogurt with a non-dairy yogurt alternative.
- Ensure the bites are fully frozen before dipping to prevent melting and maintain shape.
- Store the finished bites in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
- Optional: Add crushed nuts or shredded coconut on top after dipping in chocolate for extra texture.
