Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, to keep it lower in sugar)
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- Optional: 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup granola
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Mix Yogurt and Raspberries: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, fresh raspberries, and honey or maple syrup if using. Gently mash everything together until the raspberries are broken down and incorporated into the yogurt, creating a slightly chunky mixture.
- Add Granola: Stir in the granola thoroughly to distribute the crunch evenly throughout the yogurt mixture.
- Form Clusters: Using a spoon, scoop portions of the yogurt mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, forming small clusters.
- Add Peanut Butter Dollops: Place a small dollop of creamy peanut butter on top of each yogurt cluster for added flavor and richness.
- Freeze Clusters: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the clusters set for about 1 to 2 hours, or until they are firm enough to handle.
- Melt Chocolate and Dip: Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave or double boiler, adding a bit of coconut oil if desired to smooth the chocolate. Using a spoon, carefully dip each frozen cluster into the melted chocolate, then place them back on the parchment-lined sheet. Optionally, sprinkle with flakey sea salt for an enhanced flavor contrast.
- Final Freeze: Allow the chocolate-coated clusters to set in the freezer again until the chocolate hardens, then enjoy immediately or store them for later.
Notes
- Store clusters in the freezer for up to 2 months for maximum freshness.
- Use plain Greek yogurt to keep sugar content low and allow control over sweetness with optional honey or maple syrup.
- Substitute peanut butter with almond butter for a different nutty flavor.
- Add a small amount of coconut oil to melted chocolate for a smoother, glossier coating.
- Flakey sea salt adds a gourmet touch by balancing sweet and salty flavors.
