Strawberry Protein Yogurt Bark (3 Ingredients!)
- Total Time: 2 hours 10 minutes
- Yield: 10 servings 1x
Description
Creamy, refreshing Strawberry Protein Yogurt Bark made with just 3 ingredients. This no bake frozen snack is high in protein, meal prep friendly, and perfect for a quick sweet bite straight from the freezer.
Ingredients
2 cups plain Greek yogurt (480 g)
1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped small (225 g)
2 to 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (42 to 63 g)
Instructions
1. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a 9 x 13 inch pan for best thickness.
2. In a medium bowl, stir Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup until smooth and glossy.
3. Chop strawberries finely. For a stronger swirl, lightly mash about 1/3 of the berries to create juices.
4. Spread yogurt into an even layer about 1/4 inch thick on the prepared pan.
5. Spoon strawberries over the yogurt. Gently swirl with a butter knife 4 to 6 times. Do not overmix.
6. Freeze uncovered for 2 to 3 hours, or until completely firm.
7. Lift bark from the pan, break into pieces, and serve immediately. Store leftovers in the freezer.
Notes
For the creamiest bark, use thick Greek yogurt. Thin yogurt can freeze icy.
If using frozen strawberries, thaw fully and blot dry to reduce excess water.
For extra protein, whisk in 1 scoop vanilla protein powder. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons milk if needed to thin.
Add toppings like mini chocolate chips, sliced almonds, or granola before freezing so they stick.
Store pieces in an airtight container with parchment between layers for up to 2 weeks.

About This Recipe
What It Is
Strawberry Protein Yogurt Bark is a frozen yogurt based treat made by swirling fresh strawberries into thick Greek yogurt, lightly sweetened, then frozen and broken into bark style pieces. It is vibrant, refreshing, and naturally high in protein.
Why It Works
Greek yogurt freezes beautifully when spread thin, creating a creamy yet snappy texture. Strawberries add natural sweetness and acidity which balances the richness. Because the ingredient list is minimal, each component shines without overpowering the others.
When To Make It
This recipe is perfect for summer snacking, meal prep Sundays, post workout recovery, or when you want something sweet without baking or refined sugar overload.
Why You Will Love It
- High protein and naturally filling
- Only three simple ingredients
- No bake and freezer friendly
- Perfect for kids and adults
- Customizable with endless toppings
Key Ingredients and Notes
Greek Yogurt
Use thick Greek yogurt for the best texture. Full fat gives the creamiest result, but low fat works well too. For maximum protein, choose a yogurt with at least 15 grams of protein per serving. Strained yogurts freeze smoother and resist iciness.
Substitution: Dairy free Greek style yogurt made from coconut or almond milk works, but choose one with a thick consistency.
Strawberries
Fresh strawberries give the brightest flavor and best swirl. Chop them finely or lightly mash so they distribute evenly. Frozen strawberries can be used if thawed and drained well.
Flavor tip: Peak season strawberries reduce the need for extra sweetener.
Honey or Maple Syrup
A small amount enhances the natural sweetness of the berries. Adjust to taste depending on the sweetness of your yogurt and fruit.
Swap: For lower sugar, omit sweetener entirely or use mashed ripe strawberries only.

How To Make Strawberry Protein Yogurt Bark
Step 1 Prepare The Pan
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a pan about 9 by 13 inches for ideal thickness.
Step 2 Mix The Yogurt
In a bowl, stir the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup until smooth and glossy.
Step 3 Prepare The Strawberries
Chop strawberries finely or mash lightly with a fork until juicy but still textured.
Step 4 Swirl
Spread the yogurt evenly on the lined pan to about one quarter inch thickness. Spoon strawberries over the top and gently swirl with a knife. Avoid overmixing so you keep a marbled look.
Step 5 Freeze
Freeze uncovered for two to three hours until completely firm. The surface should feel solid with no soft spots.
Step 6 Break And Serve
Lift the bark from the pan and break into irregular pieces. Serve immediately or store for later.
Pro Tips For Success
- Use thick yogurt to avoid icy bark.
- Do not over swirl or the color will muddy.
- Freeze flat so thickness stays even.
- Let the bark sit one minute before breaking for clean snaps.
- Store in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn.
- Add toppings before freezing so they stick well.
- If using protein powder, whisk it into yogurt thoroughly to avoid clumps.
Variations and Substitutions
High Protein Boost
Add one scoop of vanilla protein powder. You may need one to two tablespoons of milk to loosen the texture.
Chocolate Strawberry
Drizzle melted dark chocolate over the bark before freezing for a dessert style version.
Berry Mix
Replace half the strawberries with raspberries or blueberries for a mixed berry bark.
Crunchy Texture
Sprinkle chopped almonds, pistachios, or granola over the top.
Dairy Free
Use coconut Greek style yogurt and maple syrup for a fully plant based bark.
