Learn how to make my delicious Greek yogurt bowl with peanut butter! Tangy Greek yogurt and creamy peanut butter, mixed with a little bit of stevia (or honey), and a ton of crunchy and juicy toppings, my scrumptious peanut butter yogurt bowl is ideal for anyone looking for a healthy breakfast, light dessert, or easy snack. These yogurt bowls are not only indulgent and sweet, but also good for you, too!

Recently, “bowl” recipes have been trending across the internet, and I’m here for it! I love creating combinations like this one that are both salty and sweet and also healthy and high protein. And this yogurt bowl is just that!

While this recipe isn’t for making peanut butter yogurt from scratch, combining peanut butter and yogurt is an excellent way to boost protein and add additional flavor to plain yogurt.

In my opinion, Greek yogurt is such a great kitchen staple! This rich, thick, and creamy yogurt is an extremely versatile ingredient that can add just the right amount of tang to both savory and sweet dishes.

I always have so much fun with the toppings, when I make this bowl too. I’ll add some of my homemade granola in contrast to the silky yogurt, goji berries, or nuts.

🥘 Ingredients

The ingredients for this yogurt and peanut butter breakfast bowl are inexpensive and easy to find. I usually have these stashed in the pantry already!

Plain Greek Yogurt: Greek yogurt is thicker and richer than regular yogurt and is higher in protein. I always choose unsweetened whole milk Greek yogurt because I love the velvety consistency it has. Low-fat or non-fat versions would work, as would vanilla Greek yogurt or vegan Greek yogurt – just watch out for any added sugar in those varieties.

Powdered Peanut Butter: This low-calorie alternative to regular nut butter brings a ton of salty, nutty flavor without adding too many calories. 

Natural Peanut Butter: I pair natural nut butter with the powdered peanut butter to get more richness, because it’s so high in healthy fats. Any creamy nut butter (like almond butter or cashew butter) will work.

Stevia: This natural sweetener is derived from plants and is extremely low-carb. I’ve also used monk fruit, or a traditional sweetener like coconut sugar or maple syrup, or omitted it altogether. Feel free to use your sweetener of choice when making this recipe.

Toppings: Strawberries, raspberries, banana slices, extra nut butter, cacao nibs, unsweetened cocoa powder, granola, and puffed quinoa are a few of my favorites for this easy peanut butter yogurt recipe.

🔪 How To Make A Healthy Peanut Butter Yogurt Bowl

Learn how to make this easy peanut butter mixed with Greek yogurt anytime of day! The steps to this recipe are incredibly simple!

Combine Ingredients: I combine the plain Greek yogurt, powdered and creamy peanut butter, and stevia to a bowl, and stir until smooth.

Blend To Fluff: To make the mixture fluffy, I’ll use a stand mixer to blend the ingredients.

Add To Bowls: Next, I’ll divide the Greek yogurt and peanut butter mixture between two bowls. I like to use shallow pasta bowls to avoid just “piling” toppings on top of each other. I think this is better for portion control, too.

Customize & Serve: Then, in portions around the bowl, I’ll add different toppings, and then I’ll serve!

📖 Variations

This easy yogurt bowl with peanut butter is my go-to healthy treat, and it’s so versatile. Here are a few of my favorite recipe variations:

Chocolate Peanut Butter Combo: For a chocolatey variation, I’ll add cocoa powder, ripe banana slices, cacao nibs, and dark chocolate chips to the peanut butter and yogurt base. This is the ultimate peanut butter yogurt dessert bowl!

Add Blueberries: For my blueberry pie variation, I use cashew butter as my nut butter, and I add in granola, a dash of vanilla extract, blueberries, and chia seeds.

Add More Toppings: I love adding additional toppings to make this dish even healthier. I sprinkle it with chia seeds, unsweetened coconut, hemp seeds, puffed quinoa, almonds, diced apples, and fresh berries. Other toppings like fresh sliced fruit, cacao nibs, granola, chopped walnuts and pecans, a drizzle of nut butter, etc.

Extra High Protein Yogurt Bowl: Looking for even more protein? Add 1 scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder into the yogurt before mixing it.

Pina Colada Version: In my Pina Colada Blend, I add coconut shavings, pineapple, sliced banana, mango, and a dash of honey for a tropical twist!

Add a Frozen Banana: I enjoy blending my peanut butter and yogurt mixture with a frozen banana to create a version that’s a twist on chocolate banana nice cream, giving it a frozen yogurt-like consistency.

🍽 Serving Suggestions

Greek yogurt is a healthy breakfast base that pairs well with a variety of flavors. I like topping yogurt bowls with everything from mango chunks to granola to honey! Fresh fruits, nuts, and seeds are always great options. This recipe is totally filling enough to be a meal on its own, but here are a few other breakfast options I recommend: 

Breakfast: I pair this yogurt bowl with other breakfast staples like my sweet potato breakfast hash, toasted gluten-free bread, and eggs in a basket for a complete breakfast smorgasbord!

Snacks: To make this a complete meal, I’ll add some vegan protein balls, chocolate chip banana bread, or homemade cinnamon toast crunch on the side.

🧊 Storage Instructions

Refrigeration: I store any leftovers in the fridge! I just transfer it into an airtight container, place plastic wrap over the yogurt (touching the yogurt so no air can get in), put the lid on, and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Freezing: Freezing this yogurt and peanut butter breakfast bowl doesn’t give you frozen yogurt in the way you’re used to eating it! While you can technically freeze Greek yogurt, it will turn into more of an icy popsicle and will become completely hard in the freezer vs. an ice cream or fro-yo consistency (this is due to the water content of the yogurt). Additionally when you defrost or thaw it, it will have a grainy texture vs. the creamy yogurt texture you’re used to. If you want to turn this into frozen yogurt, you’ll need an ice cream maker.
