Frozen Yogurt Berry Granola Bars (Printable Version)
Creamy Greek yogurt meets fresh berries and crunchy granola in these refreshing frozen bars. A wholesome treat ready in minutes with zero baking required.
# What You Need:
→ Base
01 - 2 cups granola (preferably low sugar; gluten-free if desired)
02 - 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
03 - 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
→ Yogurt Layer
04 - 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
05 - 2-3 tbsp honey or agave syrup
06 - 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
→ Berry Topping
07 - 1 cup mixed fresh berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries)
08 - 1 tbsp chia seeds (optional)
# How to Make It:
01 - Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
02 - In a medium bowl, mix granola, honey (or maple syrup), and melted coconut oil until combined.
03 - Press the granola mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the base.
04 - In a separate bowl, blend Greek yogurt, honey (or agave), and vanilla extract until smooth.
05 - Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the granola base.
06 - Scatter the mixed berries over the yogurt layer. If desired, sprinkle with chia seeds for extra texture and nutrition.
07 - Place the pan in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.
08 - Once frozen, use the parchment overhang to lift the slab out of the pan. Place on a cutting board and let sit for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly, then slice into bars using a sharp knife.
09 - Store bars in an airtight container in the freezer; serve frozen or slightly thawed.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- They come together faster than you can load the dishwasher, and no hot kitchen required
- The texture contrast between crispy granola and creamy frozen yogurt is genuinely addictive
02 -
- These thaw faster than you expect, so keep them frozen until the moment you are serving them
- Press your granola base harder than you think is necessary or the bars will crumble when you cut them
03 -
- Use the back of a measuring cup to press the granola base evenly and firmly
- Freeze the pan on a flat surface so the yogurt layer sets level
