Ingredients
For the Frozen Yogurt Base:
2 cups plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2% preferred)
¾ cup natural peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
⅓ cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
1½ tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Optional Add-Ins & Toppings:
¼ cup mini chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate
2 tbsp chopped roasted peanuts
Swirl of strawberry or raspberry jam
Chopped banana slices (added before serving)
Instructions
Step 1: Mix the Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Whisk or blend using a hand mixer until smooth and creamy with no lumps.
Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
Step 2: Fold in Add-Ins (Optional)
If using chocolate chips or chopped peanuts, gently fold them into the yogurt mixture.
You can also swirl in a bit of fruit jam for a sweet-tart contrast.
Step 3: Freeze the Mixture
Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container.
Smooth the top with a spatula and cover with a lid.
Freeze for at least 4-5 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
Step 4: Serve
Remove from freezer and let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly.
Scoop into bowls or cones and top with your favorite extras like sliced banana, extra peanuts, or a drizzle of melted chocolate.
Notes
Use Full-Fat Yogurt – It creates a creamier texture and less icy finish.
Don’t Over-Sweeten – The sweetness intensifies slightly once frozen, so taste before freezing.
Mix Well – Ensure all ingredients are fully blended for a smooth consistency.
Store Properly – Keep in an airtight container to prevent ice crystals.
