Ingredients
Scale
Greek Yogurt Bark
- 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
Optional Toppings
- 1 medium banana, sliced
- 2 tbsp graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tbsp chopped nuts
Instructions
- Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside to ensure the yogurt bark doesn’t stick during freezing.
- Mix yogurt, peanut butter, and honey: In a mixing bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and honey until the mixture is smooth and fully integrated.
- Spread the mixture: Evenly spread the yogurt mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet to form a flat layer roughly 1/4 inch thick.
- Melt the chocolate: Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Swirl in the chocolate: Dollop the melted chocolate onto the spread yogurt mixture, then gently swirl it through the yogurt using a toothpick or skewer to create a marbled effect.
- Add optional toppings: Sprinkle on sliced banana, graham cracker crumbs, and/or chopped nuts evenly across the top, if desired.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours or until the bark is completely hardened.
- Cut and store: Once frozen solid, cut into pieces of your preferred size and transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. Store in the freezer for up to one month.
- Enjoy: Serve directly from the freezer as a cool, refreshing snack or dessert.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture or non-fat for a lighter option.
- You can substitute peanut butter with almond or cashew butter for variation.
- For a vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey and ensure yogurt is plant-based.
- Swirling the melted chocolate creates a pretty marble effect but you can also fully mix it in if preferred.
- Make sure to freeze the bark fully before cutting to avoid crumbling.
- Store wrapped tightly to prevent freezer burn and maintain freshness.
