Equipment
- 1 Pressure cooker
- Muffin tin for shaping
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 cup thick yogurt Greek or coconut yogurt works best
- ¼ cup powdered peanut butter or sub peanut butter or vanilla protein powder
- 3 tablespoons peanut butter chunky or smooth
- 3-4 tablespoons maple syrup or honey for natural sweetness
- Dates either ripped in half and rolled into balls or chopped and folded in
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract adds lovely aroma
- generous pinch sea salt balances the sweetness
- 1 cup chopped chocolate or chocolate chips indulgent but still healthy
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil helps with rich texture
Instructions
Instructions
- Start by mixing your thick yogurt, powdered peanut butter, and the regular peanut butter in a big bowl. You gotta get it smooth but still thick enough to hold shape.
- Stir in the maple syrup or honey, the vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. You wanna get everything combined evenly so every bite’s flavorful.
- Fold in your chopped chocolate or chips with those dates. This is where the texture comes alive with little nuggets of sweetness.
- Prep your muffin tin with liners or spray real good so nothing sticks when you pop your bites out later.
- Spoon the mixture into the muffin tin cups, filling them about three-quarters full. Don’t overfill cuz they gotta hold their shape when they freeze.
- Drop the whole muffin tin into the freezer for at least four hours. This part you gotta be patient but it’s worth it for the texture.
- Once they’re solid, pop ‘em out and store ‘em in an airtight container right in the freezer. Ready whenever you need a quick protein fix.
Notes
These bites can be stored in the freezer for up to a month. Be sure to use thick yogurt for the best texture, and add protein powder if desired.
