No-Bake Protein Balls (6-Ingredient Energy Bites)


  • Total Time: 4 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 12 bars 1x

Description

Cool, creamy, and irresistibly nutty, these Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Bars are like peanut butter cheesecake ice cream with a healthy twist. No baking required, protein-packed, and perfect for a sweet snack any time of day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat for maximum creaminess)
  • ½ cup natural peanut butter
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • ¼ cup chopped peanuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  2. Fold in mini chocolate chips and chopped peanuts if desired.
  3. Line an 8×8-inch dish with parchment paper and spread the mixture evenly into the pan.
  4. Place in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.
  5. Lift out by the parchment, cut into 12 bars, and enjoy immediately.

Notes

Let bars sit at room temperature for 2–3 minutes before eating for a softer bite. Swap peanut butter for sunflower seed butter for nut-free. Drizzle with melted chocolate before freezing for a dessert-like touch. Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.
