One of the standout ingredients in Maple Walnut Bliss Bites is plain Greek yogurt. Renowned for its rich protein content, Greek yogurt is an excellent choice for those looking to incorporate more protein into their diets. Just one serving can provide a significant portion of the daily recommended intake. Additionally, Greek yogurt is a good source of probiotics, which are beneficial for gut health. These live bacteria can help improve digestion, boost the immune system, and enhance overall well-being. The creamy texture of Greek yogurt also lends itself beautifully to the base of these bliss bites, ensuring each mouthful is rich and satisfying.

Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup maple syrup, plus additional for drizzling

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup walnuts, roughly chopped

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Cooking spray or a silicone mold for easy removal

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk or spatula to mix until the ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture becomes creamy and smooth.

    Incorporate Textures: Gently fold in the chopped walnuts, sea salt, ground cinnamon, and mini chocolate chips (if you choose to include them). Ensure that everything is evenly dispersed throughout the yogurt mixture for balanced flavor and texture.

      Prepare the Molds: Lightly spray your silicone mold or ice cube tray with cooking spray to help with easy removal after freezing. Using a spoon, carefully fill each mold or compartment with the yogurt mixture, leveling off the tops for an even surface.

        Freeze to Firmness: Transfer the filled molds to the freezer and allow them to freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

          Unmolding the Bites: Once the bites are fully frozen, gently remove them from the molds. If they’re sticking, you can run warm water over the outside of the mold for a moment to facilitate easier release.

            Add the Finishing Touch: Arrange the maple walnut rounds on a serving platter. Drizzle additional maple syrup over the top to enhance the sweetness and create a beautiful glossy finish.

              Ready to Enjoy: Serve immediately for a delightful treat or store the bites in an airtight container in the freezer where they will keep for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy them as a refreshing snack or a satisfying dessert!
