Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat, about 120g)
  • 1 cup almond flour (blanched or superfine, about 100g; oat flour can be substituted)
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons maple syrup (30-45ml; or honey, agave, or sugar-free syrup)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5ml)
  • 3 tablespoons mini chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet, about 30g)
  • 2 tablespoons nut butter (almond, cashew, or peanut butter, about 32g)
  • Pinch of salt (about 1/8 teaspoon)
  • Optional add-ins: chopped nuts, unsweetened coconut flakes, cinnamon, espresso powder, mini M&Ms, or sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Line a small plate or baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, nut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until creamy and smooth.
  3. Add almond flour and a pinch of salt. Stir gently until a soft dough forms. If too sticky, add more almond flour 1 tablespoon at a time; if too dry, add a splash of yogurt.
  4. Fold in mini chocolate chips and any optional add-ins.
  5. Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out dough balls. Roll gently between your palms to make them round (damp hands help prevent sticking). You should get about 12-14 bites.
  6. Arrange the bites on the prepared plate or tray. Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to firm up, or in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
  7. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.

Notes

Use the thickest Greek yogurt you can find for best texture. For vegan, use dairy-free Greek-style yogurt and vegan chocolate chips. If dough is too sticky, add more almond flour; if too dry, add a splash of yogurt or nut butter. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Customize with your favorite add-ins like nuts, coconut, or spices.
