What Ingredients Do You Need for These Yummy Bites?

The beauty of this recipe lies in its simplicity, using just a handful of ingredients that work in perfect harmony.

Ingredients	Quantity
Greek yogurt (full fat)	1/2 cup
Powdered peanut butter (like PB Fit, PB2)	1/4 cup
Creamy peanut butter	1 tablespoon
Maple syrup	1/2 tablespoon
Dark chocolate chips (such as Lily’s)	1/2 cup
Coconut oil	1 teaspoon
Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)	as needed

Greek yogurt is a protein powerhouse, but its rich texture also brings creaminess to these bites, making you feel like you’re enjoying dessert. The inclusion of powdered peanut butter amplifies the nutty flavor and reduces unnecessary calories.

In addition, dark chocolate chips add that indulgent touch, and using options like Lily’s keeps the sugar content lower while offering rich chocolate flavor. This keeps the bites in line with snacking without the guilt. The coconut oil acts as a binder, especially when melting the chocolate for dipping, which adds a lovely sheen.

How Do You Prepare These Tasty Frozen Bites Step-by-Step?

Making these High Protein Frozen Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Bites doesn’t have to be daunting. In fact, it’s a breeze to whip them up!

Step 2

Next, line a plate or small baking tray with parchment paper. Using a medium cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop the yogurt mixture onto the prepared surface. Space them evenly for even freezing. Once done, place the tray in the freezer and allow the bites to freeze completely until solid.
