How to Make It

Get ready to create this scrumptious treat with these simple steps.

1. Line the Baking Sheet

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside. This will prevent the bark from sticking when frozen.

2. Combine Ingredients

Combine the yogurt mixture by mixing the yogurt, honey, vanilla protein powder, peanut butter powder, and almond milk in a bowl. If the mixture seems too thick, add a little more milk to achieve your desired consistency.

3. Add Toppings

Top with toppings of your choice such as banana slices, strawberries, chocolate chips, or granola. For extra pizzazz, melt some chocolate chips and peanut butter to drizzle over the top.

4. Freeze the Bark

Freeze the yogurt bark for 3-4 hours until it is completely frozen. Once firm, break or cut the bark into large pieces.

5. Store It

Store in an airtight container or cover it with plastic wrap to keep it fresh for later enjoyment.

How to Store It

Fridge: Up to 5 days in an airtight container.
Freezer: Yes, keeps it longer and maintains texture.
Reheat: Not required; enjoy cold.
