I love this recipe because it is incredibly simple and only requires a couple of ingredients. The combination of creamy Greek yogurt and sweet blueberries creates a refreshing snack that feels like a frozen dessert without being overly indulgent.
I also enjoy how customizable it is. I can add cinnamon, maple syrup, or other toppings depending on my mood and preferences.
Another reason I make this recipe often is that it is perfect for meal prep. I can keep a batch in the freezer and grab a piece whenever I want a quick, cooling snack.
Ingredients
(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
1 cup Greek yogurt (any milk fat percentage)
1/2 cup frozen wild blueberries
Optional:
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, or more to taste
1–2 teaspoons maple syrup, to taste
Directions
I line a small rimmed baking sheet, approximately 9 x 12 inches, with parchment paper. If desired, I clip down the sides of the parchment paper to make spreading easier, removing the clips before freezing.
I allow the blueberries to thaw slightly until they are soft enough to mash with a fork.
In a small bowl, I mash the blueberries until they are flattened and juicy.
I add the Greek yogurt and any optional ingredients, such as cinnamon or maple syrup, to the bowl. I stir everything together until well combined. I like to mix the yogurt in its container first so it becomes extra smooth and creamy.
I spoon the blueberry yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly into a rectangle about 1/4 to 1/3 inch thick.
I place the pan in the freezer and freeze for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until firm.
Once frozen, I break the bark into pieces and enjoy immediately.
Servings and timing
This recipe makes 4 servings.
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Chill time: 2 hours
Total time: 2 hours 10 minutes
Variations
I sometimes add sliced strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries for additional fruit flavor.
For extra crunch, I sprinkle chopped almonds, walnuts, or pumpkin seeds over the bark before freezing.
I enjoy adding shredded coconut for a tropical twist.
When I want a sweeter version, I mix in a little honey or maple syrup.
I occasionally add a splash of vanilla extract to enhance the flavor of the yogurt.
storage/reheating
I store the frozen yogurt bark in an airtight container in the freezer.
To prevent the pieces from sticking together, I place parchment paper or wax paper between the layers.
I keep the bark frozen for up to 2 months for the best texture and flavor.
I enjoy it straight from the freezer, so reheating is not necessary.
FAQs
Can I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen blueberries?
Yes, I can use fresh blueberries. I simply mash them the same way before mixing them with the yogurt.
What type of Greek yogurt works best?
I use any milk fat percentage I have on hand. Full-fat yogurt creates a creamier texture, while nonfat yogurt keeps the snack lighter.
Can I make this recipe dairy-free?
Yes, I can substitute a dairy-free yogurt alternative and follow the recipe as written.
How do I keep the bark from becoming icy?
I find that using Greek yogurt helps create a creamier texture because it contains less water than regular yogurt.
Can I add other toppings?
Absolutely. I like adding nuts, seeds, coconut flakes, granola, or additional fruit before freezing.
