Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Optional
- 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the bites from sticking and to make it easy to transfer the frozen treats later.
- Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, natural peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and fully blended.
- Add Chocolate Chips (Optional): Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips if you choose to use them, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
- Portion the Mixture: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Space them out slightly to allow easy freezing and handling.
- Shape the Bites: Use the back of a spoon to gently flatten each mound into a small disc shape for even freezing and a nice bite-sized form.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze the bites for at least 2 hours or until they become firm.
- Store: Once firm, transfer the frozen bites to an airtight container. Keep them stored in the freezer until ready to enjoy for the best texture and freshness.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture.
- For a dairy-free option, substitute with a thick dairy-free yogurt alternative.
- Let the bites sit at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes before eating to enhance softness and flavor.
