This Frozen Yoghurt Bark is a tasty and healthy alternative to ice cream or sugary ice lollies on a hot summer's day.
Is it just my child or do all kids start shouting for ice cream once the temperature gets over 10 degrees?
The weather is a bit unpredictable here lately and last week I got caught out on a sunny day with no ice lollies in the freezer (bad bad mum!).
I did have a large tub of yoghurt in the fridge so I decided to make some frozen yoghurt bark.
Now usually if I tried to offer the fussy eater a yoghurt instead of an ice lolly, I would get the mother of all tantrums in response!
But the novelty factor of this yoghurt bark went down well and she even ate the nuts and dried fruit. Incredible!
I used a low fat strawberry yoghurt for this. But it would work just as well with full fat or fat free varieties of any flavour.
I will definitely be making this again and will probably experiment with the toppings.
Freeze dried strawberries and raspberries would be lovely and maybe some chocolate chips too.

Description
A healthy alternative to ice cream or sugary ice lollies on a hot summer's day
Ingredients
- 450g yoghurt
- 25g flaked almonds
- 25g dried cranberries
Instructions
- Mix the yoghurt and half the almonds and cranberries in a freeer-proof dish. I used an 8in square dish but you could use a bigger one if you want thinner pieces of bark.
- Sprinkle the remainder of the almonds and cranberries on top.
- Freeze for 2-3 hours until the bark is solid. Remove from the freezer and break into pieces. I let the yoghurt thaw for around the edges to make it easier to remove from the dish.
- Eat immediately or store in freezer bags for up to one month.

Glad I found your post didn't know what to do with left over yogurt, and healthy too

Beautiful recipe. Looks so good and is very easy to put together. Pretty sure I'll be making this a LOT over the summer!

This has saved me a fortune in ice creams over the summer and also loving that it's much healthier than our usual store bought ones.
