How to Make the Recipe

Let’s dive into the step-by-step process. Don’t worry, it’s super simple!

Step 1: Prep Your Space

Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper. Make sure it’s small enough to fit in your freezer with room to spare. If you’re using refrigerated peanut butter, let it come to room temperature for easier mixing.

Step 2: Mix the Base

In a medium mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Using a sturdy spoon or spatula, stir the mixture until smooth and well combined. Make sure no streaks of peanut butter remain. If the mixture seems too thick, you can add a teaspoon of milk or additional yogurt to thin it slightly.

Step 3: Add the Fun Stuff

Add the mini chocolate chips to the yogurt-peanut butter mixture. If you’re using chopped dark chocolate instead, make sure the pieces are small enough to distribute evenly. Gently fold the chocolate into the mixture until evenly distributed. If using any optional add-ins like cinnamon, chia seeds, or chopped nuts, fold those in now as well.

Step 4: Form the Bites

Using a tablespoon measure or small cookie scoop, drop 1 to 1.5 tablespoon portions of the mixture onto the parchment-lined tray. Space them about an inch apart to prevent them from freezing together. If you prefer a neater appearance, you can use the back of a spoon to gently smooth the tops of each bite.

Step 5: Freeze

Place the tray in the freezer, making sure it’s on a flat surface. Freeze the bites for 1-2 hours, or until they’re completely firm to the touch. The exact time will depend on the temperature of your freezer and the size of your bites.

Step 6: Store

Once the bites are fully frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe container or zip-top bag. If you need to stack them, place a sheet of parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. Seal the container tightly to prevent freezer burn.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

• For the best texture, let the bites sit at room temperature for about 30 seconds before eating.
• If you’re a fan of chocolate, you can dip the tops of the bites in melted chocolate for an extra indulgent treat.
• Experiment with different mix-ins like dried fruit or coconut flakes to change up the flavor.
• These bites are perfect for meal prep. Make a batch on the weekend and enjoy them throughout the week.

How to Serve

These Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites are incredibly versatile. Enjoy them straight from the freezer as a quick snack, or use them as a healthier dessert option. They’re also great for post-workout fuel—packed with protein and just the right amount of sweetness to curb your cravings.

Make Ahead and Storage

One of the best things about this recipe is how well it holds up in the freezer. You can make these bites ahead of time and store them in an airtight container for up to 3 months. They’re perfect for grabbing on the go or serving to unexpected guests. Just be sure to label the container with the date so you know how long they’ve been in the freezer.
