INGREDIENT NOTES:
UNSWEETENED VEGAN GREEK-STYLE YOGURT:
- This is the main component that gives a creamy base for the bark. It freezes well and maintains the pleasant texture. Include coconut yogurt if you are not using Greek-style yogurt.
MAPLE SYRUP:
- It gives a natural sweet taste to the yogurt and blends smoothly in it. Agave syrup is a good alternative of maple syrup.
VANILLA EXTRACT:
- Vanilla gives warmth and improves the taste of the yogurt. It makes the bark taste more like a dessert. You may use almond extract as another choice.
CHIA SEEDS:
- They give texture and a small amount of protein as well. You may use flaxseeds, sesame seeds, or sunflower seeds as a substitute.
UNSWEETENED SHREDDED COCONUT:
- It gives a light tropical taste and a chewy texture to the bark. Also, it improves the look of the dessert. Utilize chopped nuts instead of shredded coconut for better results.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, include baking paper on the tray.
- Stir vegan yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla in a mixing bowl to make a smooth mixture.
- Then evenly spread the yogurt mixture in the tray about ½ inch thick.
- Sprinkle blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries on the yogurt.
- Then add chopped pistachios, chia seeds, and shredded coconut on top.
- Press the toppings down gently to make them stick to the yogurt and freeze for 4 hours.
