Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 1 cup raw pistachios (unsalted, roasted, chopped)
- 1/3 cup raw honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Topping
- 1/2 cup dried pistachios for topping (coarsely crushed)
Instructions
- Chill baking sheet: Line a 9×13 inch baking sheet with parchment paper and place it in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill thoroughly.
- Mix yogurt and honey: In a large bowl, combine the full-fat Greek yogurt and raw honey. Gently fold the mixture until it is smooth and fully incorporated without losing the yogurt’s fluffiness.
- Add vanilla and salt: Mix in the vanilla extract and sea salt gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the yogurt mixture.
- Fold in pistachios: Fold half of the finely chopped roasted pistachios into the yogurt mixture, reserving the remaining pistachios for the topping.
- Spread mixture: Spread the yogurt and pistachio mixture evenly onto the chilled parchment-lined baking sheet. Aim for about 1/2 inch thickness for even freezing.
- Add topping: Sprinkle the remaining coarsely crushed pistachios evenly over the top, pressing them gently into the yogurt mixture so they adhere well.
- Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for 4 to 6 hours, or until the yogurt bark is completely solid and firm to the touch.
- Serve: Remove from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes to soften slightly, then break the bark into pieces and serve immediately as a refreshing frozen treat.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and richer flavor.
- Raw honey can be substituted with maple syrup for a vegan-friendly option.
- For a crunchier texture, toast the raw pistachios lightly before chopping.
- Store leftover bark in an airtight container in the freezer to maintain freshness.
- Letting the bark sit a few minutes before serving enhances the texture and flavor release.
