Recipe Highlights
Ingredients for Frozen Yogurt Bark
- Full-Fat Greek Yogurt: For the creamiest yogurt bark, it is crucial to use full-fat Greek yogurt. I recommend using plain store-bought Greek yogurt, Instant Pot Greek yogurt, cold start yogurt, or for a dairy-free alternative, coconut milk yogurt, and then sweetening the yogurt yourself.
- To Sweeten & Flavor: Maple syrup or honey plus vanilla extract give the yogurt a perfectly sweet vanilla flavor without going overboard on sugar.
- Toppings for Yogurt Bark: Berries, chopped fruit, granola, chocolate chips, nut butter, sprinkles, nuts--whatever you love!
How To Make Frozen Yogurt Bark
The following tips are provided to help you achieve perfect results. You will find the ingredient quantities and detailed instructions in the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
- Combine. Mix Greek yogurt with maple syrup and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth.
Kristen's Tip
Why not just use vanilla Greek yogurt? You can control the flavor and amount of added sugar by sweetening plain yogurt yourself.
- Spread It Out. On a lined baking sheet, spread the yogurt mixture into a thin, even layer. I find an offset spatula the best tool for this job.
Line Your Tray!
It is crucial to line your tray with either parchment paper or a silicone mat or it will be impossible to remove the frozen yogurt bark from the tray.
- Add Toppings. Sprinkle toppings of your choice evenly over the yogurt bark. I like to gently press them into the yogurt to help ensure they stick.
- Freeze. Place the tray into a freezer and freeze until solid-overnight is best.
- Cut and Enjoy! Once frozen remove the yogurt bark from the baking sheet by lifting up the parchment paper or baking mat. Then cut or break into large chunks.
Work Quickly
Yogurt Bark melts quickly, so slice or break it right out of the freezer and return any leftovers back to the freezer promptly.
Flavor Ideas & Variations
Use your imagination to top the yogurt bark with any toppings you desire. Below are a few ideas to inspire you.
- Smores: Add crushed graham crackers, mini marshmallows, and chocolate chips.
- Chocolate Covered Fruit: Add sliced strawberries, whole raspberries, or pitted and sliced cherries along with chocolate chips or chocolate chunks.
- Peanut Butter Chocolate: Swirl yogurt with peanut butter and top with chocolate chips.
- Rocky Road: Top with marshmallows, chocolate chips, and chopped peanuts.
- Pumpkin Spice: Along with vanilla extract and maple syrup, add ⅓ cup of pumpkin puree, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice to the yogurt. Top with pepitas, dried cranberries, and/or chopped walnuts.
