High Protein Frozen Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites (Printable)
Protein-packed frozen creamy treats combining Greek yogurt and peanut butter for a satisfying healthy snack or light dessert.
# What You Need:
→ Yogurt Base
01 - 1½ cups plain Greek yogurt (2% or 0% fat)
02 - ½ cup natural peanut butter
03 - 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
04 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
05 - Pinch of salt
→ Mix-Ins (Optional)
06 - ¼ cup mini dark chocolate chips
07 - ¼ cup chopped roasted peanuts
# How-To:
01 - Line a mini muffin tin or a baking sheet with small silicone or paper liners.
02 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the mixture is completely smooth and well blended.
03 - Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips and chopped peanuts, if using, until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
04 - Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared liners, filling each to the top — about 1 tablespoon per bite.
05 - Use the back of a spoon to smooth and level the surface of each bite.
06 - Place in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until the bites are completely firm and set.
07 - Once fully frozen, remove the bites from the molds and transfer them to an airtight container. Store in the freezer until ready to serve.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- Each bite packs about five grams of protein, so you can feel genuinely good about reaching for seconds.
- No oven, no stovetop, no fancy equipment, just a bowl and a spoon and a little patience while they set.
02 -
- Letting the peanut butter come to room temperature before mixing saves you from stubborn lumps that never quite incorporate.
- These are best eaten straight from the freezer because they soften quickly and the texture shifts once they sit out.
03 -
- Tap the muffin tin gently on the counter after filling to release air bubbles that create odd holes in your finished bites.
- Keep a spare batch hidden behind the frozen vegetables because the ones in front will disappear fast.
