Ingredients
FroYo Base
- 240g thick coconut yoghurt
- 2 tbsp runny, smooth peanut butter
- 40g vegan vanilla protein powder
- 3-4 large strawberries, sliced
Chocolate Coating
- 120g dark chocolate, chopped small
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tbsp freeze-dried strawberries (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Tray: Line a freezer-safe tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make removal easy.
- Mix FroYo Base: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the thick coconut yoghurt, peanut butter, and vegan vanilla protein powder until the mixture becomes thick and smooth, ensuring even consistency.
- Scoop and Top: Divide the mixture into six equal portions and scoop onto the prepared tray forming rounds. Top each round with sliced fresh strawberries for added flavor and texture.
- Freeze: Place the tray in the freezer for 1 hour, or until the yoghurt rounds are firm and set to the touch.
- Melt Chocolate: Add the chopped dark chocolate and coconut oil to a heatproof bowl. Melt gently using a microwave or a double boiler setup (a pan of simmering water) until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Dip FroYo Bites: Carefully remove the set yoghurt rounds from the tray. Using a palette knife or spatula, dip each round into the melted chocolate, covering all sides and letting the excess drip off. Return them to the tray.
- Decorate: Immediately sprinkle the dipped biles with freeze-dried strawberries for added crunch and visual appeal.
- Set Chocolate: Let the chocolate coating set naturally at room temperature or place the tray back in the freezer for 5 minutes to speed up setting.
- Store and Serve: Enjoy the FroYo bites immediately or keep them well wrapped in the freezer for up to 1 month. They can be eaten frozen or softened at room temperature with a spoon.
