Easy Frozen Yogurt bItes (Dairy-free option)
Viral frozen yogurt bark has been all the rage lately, but these easy frozen yogurt bites may take the cake for me! These yogurt bites are topped with chocolate, ultra creamy, and easy to make. They're lower in sugar and make the perfect healthy snack or treat that are also kid and toddler friendly!You can use greek yogurt or coconut yogurt for a vegan, dairy-free option!
Ingredients
Yogurt Bites
- 1 cup THICK greek yogurt or coconut yogurt *see notes
- 3 tbsp cashew butter or almond butter *see notes for subs
- 3 tbsp maple syrup *You can add another tbsp if needed.
- 3 tbsp of your favorite protein powder *totally optional! Don't use if you don't love your protein powder.
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- gooooood pinch of sea salt *I love maldon or celtic salt
- handful of cacao nibs *optional. Can always add in other mix-ins! But cacao nibs are packed with antioxidants
Chocolate coating
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
- 1/2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Mix together the frozen yogurt mixture: Combine the yogurt, nut butter, sweetener, optional protein, sea salt, and vanilla in a large bowl. Whisk together until smooth, thick, and creamy. Taste the mixture & adjust as needed.
- Divide it amongst your mold: Divide the yogurt mixture amongst your mold, filling each crevice about 2/3 way full.
- Melt the chocolate: In a small bowl, add the coconut oil and chocolate. You can melt the chocolate using the double-boiler method or in the microwave. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring well between each, until completely smooth. Add a little chocolate to the top of each bite, filling that last 1/3 of each crevice.
- Freeze! You'll want to freeze the bites for 3-4 hours before removing them from the molds. Store in an air-tight container in the freezer for up to two months. Let the bites thaw a few minutes before enjoying for the creamiest texture.
Notes
Use a THICK yogurt that you love. The taste of the yogurt will obviously alter the taste of this recipe! Full-fat content yogurt will create the creamiest bites.
I like CocoJune or Culina for coconut yogurt!
**You can use sunflower seed butter for a nut-free option. You can also use peanut butter but keep in mind they'll taste like peanut butter as it's not as neutral as the other butters - still delicious though!
