Ingredients
Frosting Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
- ½ cup peanut butter or almond butter (any nut or seed butter will work)
- 3 Tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the plain full-fat Greek yogurt, peanut butter (or your choice of nut butter), maple syrup, and vanilla extract into a mixing bowl.
- Whip the Frosting: Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the ingredients together until the frosting is fully combined and achieves a fluffy, creamy texture.
- Frost Your Treats: Use the prepared frosting immediately to frost cupcakes, a 13×9 inch cake, or an 8-9 inch layered cake. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
Notes
- You can substitute peanut butter with almond butter or any other nut or seed butter of your choice.
- For a lower fat version, try using low-fat Greek yogurt, but note that the texture may be less creamy.
- This frosting is best used fresh and kept refrigerated if not used immediately.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
- This recipe yields enough to frost approximately 24 cupcakes or one standard cake (13×9 or 8-9 inch layered).
