How to Make the Perfect Strawberry-Chocolate Greek Yogurt Bark
Prepare Your Pan
Line a big baking sheet with parchment paper. This way, you avoid sticking and cleanup is amazingly easy. If you don’t have parchment, a silicone baking mat is a great substitute.
Mix & Spread the Yogurt Base
Mix Greek yoghurt with your sweetener: maple syrup or honey and vanilla extract in a bowl. This is done to distribute the sweetness as well as flavour into an even distribution in the yoghurt. Once mixed spread the yoghurt evenly on the prepared baking sheet, creating an edge-to-edge spread without spilling over.
Top with Strawberries & Chocolate Chips
It’s time to sprinkle the sliced strawberries and mini chocolate chips on top of the yoghurt mixture over all of this. Try to spread them evenly so that all your bites will have a maximum flavour.
Freeze to Perfection
Place your mixture in the freezer for about three hours, or until solidified. Use a sharp knife to cut or break it into chunks once it’s hard. If you want easy, grab-and-go portions, place the chunks in parchment paper and store them in the freezer.
Creative Ingredient Swaps & Add-Ins
Fruit Options: Use freeze-dried fruit or any fresh fruit with raspberry, blueberry, and even banana slices. Mango, peaches, and cherries are other possible tropical flavor.
Chocolate Upgrades: Substitute mini chocolate chips with finely chopped dark chocolate for a deeper taste.
Add Some Crunch: You may add more texture to the granola by the addition of chopped nuts, coconut chips, or granola for added crunch.
Flavors Swirls: Add nut butter, melting chocolate or even fruit jam to swirl in before freezing for more flavor depth.
Tips from the Pro Chef:
For a Thinner Bark: If you want it to be crisper, divide that yoghurt mixture between two baking sheets. Thinner bark will melt faster.
Pre-scoring the bark: Before two hours before it is completely frozen score the bark into 32 pieces to make it more manageable when it’s time to break it apart.
Kid-Friendly Morsels: For little ones or for snacking settings, cut the bark into one bite-sized pieces that just pop right in your mouth.
Nutritional Highlights:
Greek yoghurt is so yummy and rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals like B2, B12, and selenium that ensure body function as one. The strawberries are full of antioxidants and vitamin C, which therefore provide anti-inflammatories and work with gut health through their fibres: both soluble and insoluble fibres.
