How to Make Fruit Frozen Yogurt Bark
To make this Fruit Frozen Yogurt bark, all you need to do are;
1. Prep the baking Sheet
To begin, prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. This will prevent the frozen yogurt bark from sticking and make it easier to handle once it’s frozen. Set the prepared baking sheet aside for now
2. Spread the yogurt
Next, take a mixing bowl and combine the Greek yogurt with honey. Stir the mixture until the yogurt and honey are thoroughly incorporated.
Once the yogurt and honey are well mixed, it’s time to transfer this sweetened yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a rubber spatula to spread the mixture evenly across the parchment paper. This step will create a smooth, creamy base for your frozen yogurt bark.
3. Add your toppings
Now, it’s time to add the colorful, sliced fruits to your yogurt base. Scatter the strawberry, kiwi, black grape, and Sunkist slices on top. These fruits will not only add a burst of flavor but also provide a visually appealing contrast to the creamy yogurt.
4. Freeze and cut the bark
After adding the fruits, place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow it to freeze for a minimum of 3 hours. This freezing time is crucial to set the yogurt and fruits into a bark-like consistency.
When the freezing period finish, your yogurt bark should be firm and ready to enjoy. Take the baking sheet out of the freezer and carefully remove the frozen yogurt bark. You can then cut or break it into your desired serving pieces. The end result will be a delightful and refreshing treat.
Serve immediately. Enjoy!
For the best taste and texture, serve your fruit frozen yogurt bark right away. It can be a bit hard when it comes out of the freezer, so letting it sit at room temperature for a minute or two will help soften it slightly before serving. Enjoy this healthy and customizable dessert!
Recipe Notes;
- The reason for iciness in frozen desserts is due to water content. Well, turns out my yogurt bark is icy. every natural product that is in the slightest bit, wet, has water in it – be it milk, cream, vegetables, or even meat, or in our case, yogurt. Choosing Fruits turnout affected the ice of yogurt bark
- Use full-fat yogurt. Using yogurt with full fat means that the texture will be less likely to get icy when frozen. It will also have a better taste that’s more creamy.
- Line your baking sheet. This will help to remove the bark easily from the tray, if you don’t line it, the yogurt will freeze to it and it will be really tough to remove. Use parchment or wax paper to line the entire surface of your sheet pan.
- Allow time for the bark to set. It will take around 3 hours for the bark to fully set in the freezer. Make it the night before to enjoy the next day.
