Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (or thick dairy-free yogurt)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter (or preferred nut/seed butter)
- Chocolate (sufficient for coating)
- Optional toppings: chopped peanuts, granola, or sea salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Yogurt Mixture: Combine Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and peanut butter in a bowl until smooth.
- Form the Bites: Spoon dollops of the mixture onto a parchment-lined tray. Optionally, insert popsicle sticks.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle desired toppings, like chopped peanuts, over the dollops.
- Freeze: Freeze the tray for at least 1 hour, or until bites are firm.
- Prepare Chocolate Coating: Melt chocolate in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Add coconut oil if needed to thin.
- Coat the Bites: Dip frozen bites into the melted chocolate to coat completely. Optionally, sprinkle sea salt on top.
- Final Freeze: Freeze coated bites for 10-15 minutes, or until chocolate hardens.
- Serve: Let bites sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes before enjoying. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
- For nut-free bites, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter and omit nut toppings.
- To create a vegan version, use dairy-free yogurt and ensure your chocolate and peanut butter are vegan-friendly.
- Add protein powder for a protein boost, adjusting the yogurt quantity to maintain consistency.
