Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons Coconut oil (melted)
• 2 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
• 1 cup Creamy natural peanut butter (no added sugar)
• 1.5 cups Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
• 4 ounces Low-fat cream cheese (softened)
• 0.25 cup Honey or maple syrup (for filling)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 ounce Dark chocolate (70% or higher, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped peanuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted coconut oil, and 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture has the texture of wet sand.

Step 2

Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the base of a flat glass or measuring cup to firmly press it down. Refrigerate the crust for at least 10 minutes to set.

Step 3

Prepare the filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup of honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the ingredients together until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Spoon the peanut butter filling into the prepared crust and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 5

Shave or finely chop the dark chocolate and sprinkle it over the top of the pie. For added crunch, sprinkle with chopped peanuts, if desired.

Step 6

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until firm. For best results, let it chill overnight.

Step 7

When ready to serve, slice the pie into 8 even pieces and enjoy a healthier take on a classic dessert!
