Peanut Butter Yogurt Bowl
Description
This bowl features Greek yogurt stirred together with runny peanut butter and optional vanilla extract until smooth. The viscosity of the peanut butter affects the mixture's thickness; almond milk can be added sparingly for a creamier, looser texture.
The resulting blend balances the tang of thick yogurt with the nutty richness of peanut butter. It serves as a canvas for numerous toppings like fresh banana slices, cinnamon, chocolate chips, apples, berries, keto granola, toasted nuts, or coconut flakes, allowing for flavor and texture variety.
The recipe offers flexibility for sweeteners, with options ranging from keto-friendly low-carb sweeteners to more traditional honey or maple syrup, incorporated as desired but not required. The bowl is suitable for a single serving, making it easy to prepare fresh or store refrigerated until consumed.
Ingredients
- ½ cup Greek yogurt 120g, I used Fage, 5% fat
- 1.5 tablespoon peanut butter heaped, 38g. Must be runny. I used Pip & Nut
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract optional, but recommended.
Optional add-ons
- 1-2 tablespoon almond milk to thin out the mixture, only if necessary
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt and peanut butter with a spoon until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and stir again to combine. See the recipe notes for sweetener options.
- Depending on the consistency of your peanut butter, the yogurt mixture may be quite firm. For a thinner and creamier texture, thin it out with a splash of milk of your choice.
- Add toppings and enjoy straight away or store in the fridge until ready to eat. Topping suggestions are in the recipe notes below.
Notes
- The recipe yields one serving with 8 net carbs not counting toppings.
- Add sweetener to taste if preferred, using low-carb options like allulose or traditional sweeteners such as honey or maple syrup.
- Toppings enhance flavor and texture; consider fresh fruit slices, chocolate chips, keto granola, toasted nuts or seeds, cinnamon, or coconut flakes.
- Toast nuts or seeds in a dry pan over low heat until lightly browned for enhanced flavor before adding as a topping.
- If needed, thin the yogurt and peanut butter mixture with almond milk or another milk to achieve the desired consistency.
