Bark-Building Ingredients
- Greek Yogurt: Thick Greek style yogurt works best to keep all the tasty berries and nuts in place and will not melt as quickly as regular yogurt will. Try vanilla, strawberry, or lemon frozen yogurt, anything goes.
- Berries: Use berries fresh from a summer harvest. Or use frozen berries, no need to thaw.
- Nuts: Toast nuts in a dry saute pan before adding to the recipe. This makes them extra crunchy and intensifies their flavor.
- Sweetener: Use your favorite sugar-free sweetener like maple syrup, Lakanto (monk fruit syrup), keto powdered sugar, or Stevia drops.
Mix, Match & Make it Yours
- Experiment with fun flavor. Blackberries, strawberries, cherries, and slices of kiwi are great additions. Or combine them for added color, texture, and flavor.
- No berries? No problem! Swirl in some sugar-free, low-carb fruit jam or sauce.
- Add mashed avocado to the yogurt to increase the healthy fats without changing the flavor.
- Add a few drops of natural food coloring to make a festive yogurt bark. Orange for Halloween, pink for Spring, or green for Christmas.
- Go entirely sweetener-free and swap out the maple syrup for maple extract. A dash of cinnamon or lemon zest is a keto-friendly way to enhance flavor without sugar.
- If nut allergens are an issue, use sunflower, pumpkin, chia, or flax seeds instead. Other crunchy toppings to use are keto granola, keto cereal, or toasted coconut.
How to Make Yogurt Bark
- Whisk Greek yogurt, sweetener, and vanilla until smooth and spread on a baking sheet.
- Gently press berries and nuts all over the yogurt.
- Freeze until firm. Break bark into pieces and store in a zippered bag in the freezer.
Cool Tips
- Make sure the yogurt is at least ¼” thick. Use a spatula to smooth it out on the pan.
- For the best texture, make sure the bark is frozen solid and very hard before breaking it up and storing it.
- Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to break up frozen yogurt bark pieces.
Bark Storage Made Simple
Keep Greek yogurt bark pieces in a covered container between sheets of parchment paper so they don’t stick together, or use zippered bags in the freezer for up to 3 months. Keep it on hand for a quick treat to serve for last-minute guests.
