Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup key lime juice
- 2–3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (divided)
- Optional: zest of 1 key lime
Instructions
- Prepare the yogurt mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, key lime juice, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-blended. Adjust the sweetness or tartness to your liking during this stage.
- Add crust crumbs and lime zest: Gently fold in most of the graham cracker crumbs and a sprinkle of key lime zest, reserving some crumbs for topping. This step integrates texture and flavor into the creamy base.
- Spread onto a lined baking sheet: Line a baking sheet or shallow pan with parchment paper. Spread the yogurt mixture evenly to about half an inch thickness, ensuring a uniform layer for even freezing.
- Top and freeze: Sprinkle remaining graham cracker crumbs and additional lime zest on top for crunch and aesthetics. Place the pan in the freezer and let it set for at least 4-6 hours or until completely firm.
- Break into pieces and serve: Once frozen, remove the bark from the pan using the edges of the parchment paper. Break or cut it into bite-sized pieces and enjoy immediately or store for later.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the creamiest texture and best flavor balance.
- Don’t skip the parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the bark without sticking.
- Adjust sweetness gradually by tasting the yogurt mixture before spreading.
- Freeze uncovered for an hour to set the base, then add toppings to prevent them from sinking.
- Store airtight in the freezer to maintain freshness and prevent freezer odors.
