Frozen Greek Yogurt Bars

June 21, 2018 by Lindsay 71 Comments

Hi Friends!

I’ve got a special treat for you today- a new dessert…

That only has 4 ingredients.

And is super simple to make.

Are you ready for it?!

You're just a few ingredients away from these Frozen Greek Yogurt Bars. They're a fun way to turn yogurt and granola into a finger food!

Aren’t they pretty?! For those of you that don’t know, it’s super hard for me to photograph white things…so just trust me. I promise they taste good.

When my friends at Chobani sent me some of their new, bigger, pre-blended tubs of yogurt to try out (free sample. all thoughts are my own)…I immediately dove into the Vanilla Chocolate Chunk because I’d never had it before.

We all know I love my greek yogurt frozen- remember these Frozen Yogurt Bites?

These bars use similar ingredients. I added coolwhip to make the yogurt a little lighter and make it more dessert-like. You could also make this in a pie tin and cut into wedges! Or make a mini version using muffin tins!

You’ll have to play around with the pan size. I used a weird 11×7 pan and it was too big, so I just made a little foil barrier to put on one edge to hold the yogurt in place until it froze. I think an 8×8 pan would work well.

I covered mine with plastic wrap until it froze, then cut into squares and stored in a tupperware container.

Here’s the super simple recipe:

That’s it! Don’t be afraid to try with different flavors. I’m trying blueberry next!

My crust held together fairly well with just the granola and pb. If yours doesn’t, you could add a little melted butter, or increase the amount of pb you use.

 

You're just a few ingredients away from these Frozen Greek Yogurt Bars. They're a fun way to turn yogurt and granola into a finger food!

      i think it would work. it might be a bit different because the crust wouldn’t be as crunchy…it’d be softer i think…but i think it would still taste good!
