The basic yoghurt bark recipe
Serves 6
Total time: 10 minutes, plus freezing
Ingredients
- 250g Greek-style yoghurt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- 1 tablespoon runny honey
- Your choice of yoghurt flavouring, such as mint leaves, blackberries
- Your favourite toppings, such as blackberries, blueberries, cherries, banana, pistachios, peanuts, caramel sauce
Method
- Line a 20cm x 30cm baking tray with a sheet of greaseproof paper.
- Pop the yoghurt, vanilla bean paste and honey in a small food processor and blitz to combine – you could also do this by hand in a bowl.
- Add your choice of flavour to the mixture (see below) and blitz or stir to combine.
- Evenly spread the mixture across the prepared baking tray, to about the thickness of a £1 coin.
- Prepare your choice of topping(s) and scatter over the yoghurt bark.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm, then snap into pieces and serve immediately. The bark will last in the freezer for up to 7 days in a sealed container.
Our favourite yoghurt bark flavours and toppings
Make a splash with this beautiful Black Forest fruits & coconut yoghurt bark. Blitzed-up blackberries give the bark a gorgeous two-tone effect, while whole blackberries, cherries, blueberries and coconut super-charge the flavour.
Big up the holiday vibes with mint choc chip! Fresh mint leaves are blitzed into the yoghurt mix for a refreshing twist, then the bark is topped with homemade chocolate curls, pistachios and summer berries. Delicious.
Peanut butter and banana are the best flavour friends. Here they’re given a chance to shine, with a sprinkling of salted peanuts and a drizzle of caramel as the finishing touch.
