These Healthy Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Breakfast Blondies are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day.

Naturally sweetened with honey or maple syrup and optionally topped with chocolate chips, they are easy to make and perfect for a grab-and-go meal.


Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural peanut butter (or almond butter)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat or low-fat)
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk (any kind, or non-dairy alternative)

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Optional Topping

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the natural peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together the rolled oats, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening and salt.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. If the batter feels too thick or dry, add milk a tablespoon at a time until you reach a spreadable consistency.
  5. Prepare for Baking: Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly to all corners.
  6. Add Topping (Optional): If desired, sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top to add a touch of sweetness and texture.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating it is fully cooked.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Enjoy as a healthy, protein-packed breakfast or snack.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond butter for peanut butter if preferred.
  • For a vegan version, replace eggs with flax eggs and use a non-dairy yogurt and milk alternative.
  • If you want extra sweetness, drizzle a little more honey or maple syrup on top after baking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • These blondies can be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw before serving.
