Ingredients
Scale
Core Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat)
- ½ cup creamy natural peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
Optional Flavor Boosters
- Mini or chopped chocolate chips
- Chia seeds
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of cinnamon
Variations
- 2 tablespoons melted dark chocolate (for chocolate swirl)
- 2 tablespoons mashed strawberries or blueberries (for berry blast)
- 1 tablespoon crushed nuts or granola (for crunch)
Instructions
- Mix the Base: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and honey. Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If using, add vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon now for extra flavor and mix well.
- Portion Out: Using a mini-muffin tin or silicone mold, spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the yogurt mixture into each cavity. Spread evenly to fill each cup without overflowing.
- Add Toppings (Optional): Press a few mini chocolate chips into each portion or sprinkle chia seeds on top for added texture and nutrition. Alternatively, mix in your chosen variation ingredients such as mashed berries, crushed nuts, or drizzle melted dark chocolate before freezing.
- Freeze: Place the filled tray in the freezer and allow it to freeze for at least 2 hours or until solid. This step requires patience but ensures firm, bite-sized frozen treats.
- Enjoy and Store: Once fully frozen, run warm water briefly over the bottom of the mold to loosen the bites. Pop them out gently and transfer into a labeled freezer-safe bag. Store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy straight from the freezer as a refreshing snack or dessert.
