Yogurt Bark

With only 6 ingredients this easy and tasty Yogurt Bark is a fun snack for any time of day! Delicious, fruity, and absolutely refreshing! Pin I have always been a yogurt person, that is one thing that I’ve always loved since I was a kid and I still eat it to the day. I believe that it makes a great breakfast and usually have at least one a day. I am not particular about the flavors, but I do like fruit, which most of them are but I’m all about all different kinds of fruit, they are a tasty, and easy snack and inexpensive! This Yogurt Bark is one of my favorite things to make that is just a little bit different from your normal yogurt, instead of in little containers you get it in bar form! It is so easy to put together that you can’t not make it! We like to use strawberries and blueberries for this version but any fruit will work essentially, so it’s really up to your creation. This is a more healthy version than being sugar-packed as it is made with low-fat Greek yogurt and sweetened with some maple syrup which we absolutely love. The hardest part of this recipe is waiting for it to set up, but trust me when I say that in the end, it is totally worth the wait, you will love this yogurt bark. Some of my other favorite fruity snacks we have on our site include Tropical Cheesecake Salad, Frosted Grapes, and Peanut Butter Apple Nachos! Pin

HOW TO MAKE YOGURT BARK:

1. Line a 9×13 baking dish or sheet with parchment paper.  
2. In a medium to large mixing bowl add the yogurt, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla, stir to combine.
3. Pour the yogurt mixture into the lined sheet pan and spread out evenly until covering the bottom of parchment paper.
4. Add the fruit and place it on top of and in the yogurt.  You can decorate the surface of the yogurt any way you want.  Thin slices of strawberry work well here.
5. Place the sheet pan in the freezer for 4+ hours, until the yogurt is frozen all the way through.
6. Lift parchment paper out of the pan and peel off the frozen yogurt.  Break into 3 to four-inch pieces and serve.

WHAT IS YOGURT BARK?

Yogurt Bark is essentially yogurt that is mixed with some other ingredients that is spread out and topped with various toppings and frozen until solid. It is then broken up into pieces or “bark” and consumed as is. It is a usually healthy snack that is served cold. We absolutely can’t get enough of this recipe. We make it more often than not, especially in the warmer months as it is a great snack that will cool you down. I would take a piece of this over a popsicle any day. The flavor is there and since it is studded with fresh fruit it makes it even better because you get even more bursts of flavor in each bite.

WHAT OTHER TOPPINGS CAN I USE?

1. Granola
2. Nuts
3. Chocolate chips
4. Cereals
5. Various fruits

HOW TO STORE:

This recipe needs to remain frozen or it will start to melt. We like to store ours in a freezer bag and keep it in the freezer where it will keep for up to 3 months. Just pull out slices when you want to enjoy some!

TIPS AND TRICKS:

• You can use any variety of yogurt or milk you wish.  Plant-based yogurts and plant-based milk work just as well.
• If you want a more brittle bark you can add a cup of milk to thin out the yogurt.  The milk adds more liquid to the yogurt mixture and therefore makes the bark more brittle and slightly denser.
• Top with anything that you like, like I said earlier anything that you think would taste good with yogurt will work!
• Using plain unsweetened yogurt allows you to sweeten it as you wish but you can also use sweetened and flavored yogurts as they work just as well.
• This needs to be kept frozen or it will melt.
