Strawberry Chocolate Tahini Frozen Yogurt Bars
These summer-ready treats are just cool, creamy and just sweet enough! Protein, healthy fats and probiotics make them a nutritious dessert or snack for a warm day.
Ingredients
- 1 cup regular or dairy free yogurt I used Harmless Harvest plain coconut yogurt
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder I use Ritual Vanilla Protein
- 1/3 cup tahini
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup almonds or cashews, chopped
- 3/4 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Add yogurt, protein powder, tahini, maple syrup, vanilla, strawberries, nuts and sea salt to a medium-sized bowl and mixed until evenly blended.
- Scoop dollops of yogurt mixture onto a parchment lined baking sheet. I did 6 larger scoops but you could also do smaller scoops for mini clusters.
- Place baking sheet in freezer for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- After your yogurt clusters are frozen solid, prepare your melted chocolate for dipping. Fill a sauce pan with 1-2 inches of water and place over medium-low heat.
- Place a metal bowl on top of sauce pan and add chocolate chips and coconut oil to the bowl. As your water begins to simmer, stir chocolate until melted.
- Remove melted chocolate from the heat and let cool a few minutes.
- Using 2 forks dunk each frozen yogurt cluster into the chocolate and turn to coat.
- Place back on the parchment. Once all are covered in chocolate place back in the freezer for another few minutes until chocolate is hardened.
- Enjoy immediately or store in the freezer in a sealed container. Before eating, you may want to let them sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes so they are softer to bite into.
