How to Make Healthy No-Bake Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Soft Fudge Donut Cups

PIN IT

Step 1: Mix the Base

In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla until silky smooth. This is where the magic starts — creamy, glossy, and already irresistible.

Step 2: Add the Dry Ingredients

Sift in the cocoa powder, oat flour, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently until fully combined. The mixture should be thick, rich, and spoonable — like soft fudge.

Step 3: Shape the Donut Cups

Spoon the mixture evenly into a donut pan or lined muffin tin. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon. If you want that classic donut look, press gently to create a center hole.

Step 4: Chill

Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until firm to the touch.

Step 5: Enjoy

Pop them out, admire your work (seriously — they’re cute), and enjoy straight from the fridge.
