Salted Caramel Yogurt Clusters with Dates
These Salted Caramel Yogurt Bites with Dates are a delicious healthy dessert recipe.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 12 dates - pitted and roughly chopped
- ½ cup thick yogurt of choice (I used unsweetened) you can use greek or dairy free
- 2 pinches flaky sea salt - divided
- ¼ cup almond butter or nut butter of choice
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon hard coconut oil
Instructions
- Add dates, yogurt, almond butter and one pinch of sea salt to a bowl. Mix until combined.
- Spoon* out mixture onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper (a plate or other flat surface also works) into 5-6 evenly sized clusters. Freeze for 1-2 hours or overnight, until hardened. I have found that dairy yogurt takes longer to freeze than non dairy.
- Melt together chocolate and coconut oil. I melted mine for 3 30 second intervals in the microwave.
- Dunk each cluster in dark chocolate. Sprinkle over the rest of the flaky salt. Freeze again for 10-15 minutes, until set. Dig in and enjoy!**
Notes
These clusters can be stored in your fridge for about 5 days or the freezer for months.
*I used an ice cream scooper.
**If you want your clusters to have a softer inner texture instead of a frozen texture let them sit out for 10 minutes.
