Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup fresh key lime juice
  • 23 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Crust

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil

Optional Toppings

  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons toasted coconut flakes
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pistachios or almonds
  • 1/4 cup fresh or frozen raspberries or blueberries
  • Optional: a dash of ground ginger or cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs, then mix them thoroughly with melted butter or coconut oil until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this crumb mixture evenly onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray to form the crust base.
  2. Mix the yogurt filling: In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, fresh key lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  3. Assemble the bark: Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the prepared graham cracker crust layer. Use a spatula to smooth the surface ensuring every bite will contain both crust and creamy filling.
  4. Add optional toppings: Sprinkle chia seeds, toasted coconut flakes, chopped nuts, berries, or a dash of ground ginger or cinnamon on top to personalize your bark with extra texture and flavor.
  5. Freeze until firm: Place the tray in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until the bark is completely solid. Once frozen, break it into pieces and store in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a richer, creamier texture and enhanced flavor.
  • Always use fresh key lime juice and zest for the best authentic tang.
  • Press the crust firmly to help it hold together when breaking the bark.
  • Spread the yogurt layer evenly for consistent texture in every piece.
  • Freeze thoroughly to ensure the bark sets well and doesn’t crumble.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
  • Allow frozen bark to soften at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving if needed.
