Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (preferably full-fat)
  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups almond flour
  • Pinch of sea salt

Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup mini dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, natural peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Fold in the almond flour and a pinch of sea salt into the wet mixture. Stir gently until you achieve a dough-like consistency without overmixing.
  3. Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the mini dark chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough to distribute the chocolate in every bite.
  4. Form Bites: Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, shape the dough into bite-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined tray to prevent sticking.
  5. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the tray of cookie dough bites for 1 to 2 hours. This chilling step helps the dough firm up and hold its shape.
  6. Storage: Store the cookie dough bites in an airtight container in the fridge, where they will stay fresh for up to one week.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the best texture and flavor, but low-fat can be substituted if desired.
  • For nut-free variation, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter and ensure almond flour is safe for your needs or replace with a seed flour.
  • Chilling time can be extended overnight if you prefer firmer bites.
  • Customization options include adding chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or swapping dark chocolate chips for other preferred mix-ins.
  • These bites can also be frozen for longer storage; thaw in the fridge before serving.
