Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites

Start with a bright, snackable idea: Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites deliver creamy, tangy yogurt and rich peanut butter in one bite-sized chill. You taste the cool tang first, then the nutty warmth, and the occasional chocolate chip adds a sweet pop. You make these when you want a healthy dessert, a post-workout snack, or a kid-friendly treat that you can grab from the freezer. They freeze quickly, require no baking, and take minutes to mix, so you can enjoy fresh, protein-rich snacks any day. If you like bold, simple flavors, try a savory contrast with my Greek yogurt marinated chicken breast recipe for a full meal pairing.

Why Make Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites

You save time. They take under 10 minutes to prepare, then you freeze and forget them for a couple hours.

You save money. You use pantry staples—Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and chocolate chips—for a cost-effective treat that still feels indulgent.

You get nutrition. Greek yogurt gives protein and probiotics, while peanut butter adds healthy fats and satiety.

You get versatility. You serve them as a snack, a healthy dessert, or a quick breakfast addition with fruit.

How to Make Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites

First, you blend creamy Greek yogurt with peanut butter until the texture becomes smooth and slightly glossy. You fold in chocolate chips so the chips distribute in tiny pockets, giving each bite a sweet crunch. Use a sturdy spoon or a rubber spatula to fold gently and keep the mixture airy.

Next, you portion the mixture into small rounds on parchment. You press them lightly so they hold shape, then transfer the tray to the freezer. The freezing step gives the bites their firm, scoopable texture and a cold, refreshing mouthfeel.

For a savory-sweet contrast, pair these with warm bites from my garlic butter steak bites and asparagus recipe to create a small-plate spread.

Ingredients

For the bites:

1 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup chocolate chips

Directions

In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt and peanut butter until well combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop the mixture into small bites and place them on a parchment-lined tray.
Freeze for at least 2 hours or until solid.
Enjoy as a healthy snack!
Freeze at 0°F (-18°C) and look for a firm, set exterior with no visible softness before serving.

How to Serve Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites

Serve them straight from the freezer for a firm, chewy texture. Also try them slightly thawed for a creamier bite that still holds shape. Pair with fresh berries or sliced banana for color and brightness. Present them on a small platter with mint leaves for contrast and a neat, snackable display.

How to Store Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites

Refrigerator: Store leftovers for up to 24 hours in an airtight container, but expect softening.
Freezer: Layer bites between parchment paper in a sealed freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
Reheating: Let frozen bites sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes for easier chewing; do not microwave or they will lose texture.

Tips to Make Frozen Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Bites

Substitute almond or sunflower seed butter if you need a nut-free or different flavor.
Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture; low-fat yields a firmer bite.
Scoop with a small cookie scoop for consistent sizes and even freezing.
Chill the tray briefly before scooping to help bites hold shape.
Stir gently to avoid overworking the yogurt and keeping the mixture light.

Variations

Chocolate Swirl: Mix 1 tbsp melted dark chocolate into half the batter, then swirl into the remaining batter for marbled bites.
Berry Ripple: Fold in 2 tbsp mashed raspberries for a tart contrast and pink streaks throughout.

FAQs

Q: Can I use flavored yogurt?
A: Yes, you can use vanilla-flavored yogurt substitutes, but avoid regular vanilla extract since it contains alcohol; flavored yogurt adds sweetness so reduce added mix-ins.

Q: How long do they last in the freezer?
A: They stay best for up to 3 months in an airtight container; label the container and use within that time.

Q: Can I make these ahead for a party?
A: Yes, prepare and freeze them the day before. Transfer to a serving platter just before guests arrive and allow 3–5 minutes at room temperature for easier biting.
