How to Make Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Banana Brownie Bites

PIN IT

1. Preheat & Prep
   Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini muffin tin with parchment liners or grease well.
2. Mash the Bananas
   In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth and creamy. (A few small lumps are okay—they add texture!).
3. Mix Wet Ingredients
   Add the peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey/maple syrup, egg, and vanilla. Whisk until well combined.
4. Add Dry Ingredients
   Sprinkle in oat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Don’t overmix—this keeps your bites tender.
5. Stir in Chocolate Chips
   Fold in the dark chocolate chips for little pops of melty goodness in every bite.
6. Fill & Bake
   Scoop the batter into the muffin tin, filling each about ¾ full. Bake for 12–15 minutes until tops are set and slightly crackled.
7. Cool & Enjoy
   Let cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy warm or at room temp!

What to Serve with Brownie Bites
