Creamy Peanut Butter Greek Frozen Yogurt

Creamy Peanut Butter Greek Frozen Yogurt is the perfect balance of indulgent flavor and simple ingredients, making it an easy treat you’ll crave year-round. First of all, it delivers rich peanut butter flavor while staying refreshingly light. At the same time, Greek yogurt adds a smooth, tangy base that freezes beautifully. Because this recipe uses no ice cream machine, it’s both approachable and reliable.

Moreover, the texture turns out incredibly creamy with just a little stirring, while the natural sweetness keeps every bite balanced. As a result, it works equally well as a dessert or a high-protein snack. Interestingly, frozen yogurt became popular in the U.S. during the 1970s as a lighter alternative to ice cream. Since then, it has evolved into a dessert loved for both flavor and flexibility.

Whether you serve it right away or scoop it later, this frozen yogurt delivers comfort, richness, and simplicity in every spoonful.

Recipe Yield: 6 servings

INGREDIENTS

1 ½ cups plain full-fat Greek yogurt
½ cup creamy natural peanut butter
¼ cup honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
⅛ tsp fine sea salt
2 tbsp milk (as needed for blending)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Blend the base:
First, add Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, vanilla, and salt to a blender or food processor. Then blend until completely smooth, creamy, and uniform. If needed, gradually add milk to help it blend smoothly.

2. Chill before freezing:
Next, transfer the mixture to a covered bowl. After that, refrigerate for 30 minutes so the base chills evenly before freezing.

3. Freeze and stir:
Then pour the chilled mixture into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals and create a creamy texture.

4. Scoop and serve:
Finally, once frozen but scoopable, serve immediately or freeze longer for a firmer texture. Let sit at room temperature 5 minutes before scooping if fully frozen.

Helpful Tips to Perfect This Recipe

• Use full-fat Greek yogurt: This ensures a creamier texture while preventing icy results, especially since frozen yogurt relies on fat for smoothness.
• Choose natural peanut butter: Peanut butter without added oils or sugar blends more evenly and delivers a cleaner, richer flavor.
• Stir while freezing: Although optional, stirring improves texture dramatically by mimicking a churned frozen dessert.
