Ingredients
- 2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

Instructions
In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the yogurt mixture evenly into a thin layer (about ¼ inch thick).
Sprinkle fruit, nuts, granola, and coconut evenly over the yogurt. Gently press toppings into the surface so they stick.
Place the tray in the freezer for 3–4 hours, or until completely firm.
Remove from freezer and break into irregular bark pieces.
Serve immediately or store in the freezer until ready to enjoy.

FAQs
Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?
Yes, but Greek yogurt is recommended because it is thicker and creates a creamier texture once frozen. Regular yogurt can become more icy and less satisfying in texture.
How long does yogurt bark last in the freezer?
It can last up to 2 weeks when stored in an airtight container. However, it’s best enjoyed within the first week for optimal taste and texture.
Can I make it dairy-free?
Absolutely. You can use coconut yogurt or any plant-based yogurt alternative and still get great results.
Why is my yogurt bark too icy?
This usually happens if the yogurt is too thin or has too much water content. Using thick Greek yogurt and avoiding excess moisture from fruit helps prevent this.
Can I add chocolate?
Yes, chocolate chips or a drizzle of melted chocolate works perfectly and adds a delicious contrast to the tangy yogurt.
