How to Make It
It’s easy to prepare this yogurt bark with just a few simple steps!
Combine ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, key lime juice, protein powder, lime juice, lime zest, powdered swerve, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Prepare baking sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the prepared baking sheet, creating a thin, even layer.
Add toppings
Sprinkle the crushed graham crackers, toasted coconut, and additional lime zest evenly over the yogurt layer.
Freeze
Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours, or until the yogurt mixture is fully frozen and set.
Break into pieces
Once frozen, remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Lift the parchment paper or silicone mat from the baking sheet and break the frozen yogurt bark into pieces.
Enjoy!
Enjoy immediately or store the bark pieces in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Store the bark in a single layer or between sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
