Ingredients

Print

• 1 cup Greek yogurt (any milk fat %)
• ½ cup frozen wild blueberries
• Optional:
• ¼ teaspoon cinnamon (more to taste)
• 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup (to taste)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prep the Pan: Line a small rimmed baking sheet (about 9 x 12 inches is perfect) with parchment paper. If needed, clip down 2 sides of the parchment paper to hold it in place.
2. Mash the Blueberries: Let the blueberries thaw just enough that you can mash them with a fork in a small bowl (a cereal bowl works great here). Mash those blueberries until they are completely flattened.
3. Mix it Up: Add the Greek yogurt, cinnamon (if using), and maple syrup (if using) to the bowl with the mashed blueberries. Using a spoon or small spatula, mix everything together until it’s well combined. Pro tip: Give the yogurt a good stir in the container first to make it extra creamy!
4. Spread and Freeze: Spoon the blueberry yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and, using a small spatula or frosting spreader, spread it evenly into a rectangle, filling the pan to about 1/4 -1/3 inch thick. It doesn’t need to be perfect – a little rustic charm is part of the fun! Pop it into the freezer for 1 1/2 – 2 hours, or until solid.
5. Break and Enjoy: Once frozen, break the bark into irregular pieces and serve immediately.

Equipment

• Small rimmed baking sheet (around 9×12 inches)
• Parchment paper
• Fork
• Small bowl (cereal bowl)
• Spoon or spatula

Tips & Variations

Substitutions: You can use any kind of yogurt you like, but I find Greek yogurt gives it the best texture. If you’re not a fan of blueberries, try other frozen fruits like raspberries or strawberries. I found that with my family, once they tried this recipe, they wanted a different fruit each time!

Storage: Store any leftover bark in an airtight container in the freezer. It’s best enjoyed straight from the freezer!
