Protein Peanut Butter Pie in a Jar (Single-Serve!)
Description
The recipe starts by mixing quick oats, a sweetener substitute for brown sugar, and melted butter to form a crumbly crust pressed into a jar. The peanut butter filling is whipped together from Cool Whip, Greek yogurt, peanut butter powder, a sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to balance the flavors.
Spoon the filling over the crust and smooth the surface, optionally topping with more Cool Whip. The dessert is chilled in the refrigerator for several hours or frozen for quicker setting and convenience. Before serving, it is recommended to defrost for about 10 minutes to achieve the right texture.
This recipe is suitable for pre-made individual portions that can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week refrigerated or up to three months frozen. The combination of dairy and peanut butter powder provides protein and a creamy mouthfeel with easy assembly.
