Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt 2 percent for richness; swap for nonfat for fewer calories
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup use agave for a vegan option
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter or nut butter of your choice; almond butter gives a milder note
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or butter helps set a glossy swirl
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt optional, to finish
Optional Toppings
  • mini dark chocolate chips
  • chopped roasted peanuts
  • chia seeds
  • drizzle of melted chocolate

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, letting the paper hang over the sides for easy removal.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla until smooth and glossy.
  3. Spoon the yogurt mixture into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon.
  4. In a small bowl, stir the peanut butter with melted coconut oil until it loosens and can be drizzled.
  5. Dollop the peanut butter in spoonfuls across the yogurt layer and swirl with a butter knife or skewer to create marbled patterns.
  6. Scatter any optional toppings across the surface.
Freezing
  1. Freeze the pan flat for at least 2 hours, until firm.
  2. Lift the parchment out of the pan and slice into 1-inch squares or fun shapes.
  3. Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on each bite if desired.
  4. Store the bites in an airtight container in the freezer, separated by parchment layers.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, use a thick coconut yogurt and swap honey for maple syrup. If peanut allergies are a concern, sunflower seed butter works beautifully.
