Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or your favorite flavored variety)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (feel free to adjust for your desired sweetness level)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional but recommended for added flavor)

1/2 cup slivered almonds

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (or substitute with almond butter)

1/4 cup chopped dried fruit (consider cranberries, apricots, or your favorite mix)

A pinch of sea salt

Cooking spray or parchment paper for easy removal

Instructions
 

Prepare the Baking Sheet: Start by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper, or lightly coat it with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Set it aside for later use.

    Mix the Yogurt Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and the optional vanilla extract. Using a whisk, blend the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.

      Incorporate the Mix-Ins: Carefully fold in the slivered almonds, chopped dried fruit, and a pinch of sea salt into the yogurt mixture. This will enhance the texture and flavor profile of your yogurt bark.

        Spread the Mixture: Pour the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly, aiming for a thickness of about 1/4 inch across the entire surface.

          Drizzle with Chocolate or Nut Butter: If using dark chocolate chips, melt them in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring after each interval until they are smooth. If you prefer almond butter, gently warm it until it’s pourable. Drizzle the melted chocolate or warmed almond butter over the yogurt layer in a decorative zig-zag pattern.

            Freeze the Bark: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and allow the yogurt bark to freeze for a minimum of 4 hours or until it is completely firm.

              Break into Pieces: Once the bark is fully frozen, take the baking sheet out of the freezer. Use your hands to break the yogurt bark into irregular, bite-sized pieces.

                Serve and Store: You can enjoy the bark immediately or store the pieces in an airtight container in the freezer, where they will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.
