Key Lime Pie Yogurt Bark Recipe

Introduction

This Key Lime Pie Yogurt Bark is a refreshing and healthy treat perfect for warm days or anytime you crave a zesty snack. Packed with protein and bright lime flavors, it’s easy to make and fun to enjoy.

A white rectangular tray lined with white parchment paper holds several irregularly shaped pieces of a white, slightly rough-textured bark-like dessert speckled with toasted brown bits and green zest scattered throughout. The dessert pieces are layered in a casual pile, with some partially overlapping. Bright green lime slices, fresh and juicy with visible translucent pulp and thin green rinds, are placed on top and around the dessert pieces, adding pops of color. Surrounding the tray on a white marbled surface are white bowls filled with crushed ingredients and whole limes. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups plain Greek yogurt (non-fat or low-fat; dairy-free yogurt can be used)

  • 2 tablespoons powdered Swerve (or 1 tablespoon honey, adjust sweetness to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  2. Step 2: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the sheet to form a thin, even layer.
  3. Step 3: Sprinkle crushed graham crackers, toasted coconut, and additional lime zest evenly over the yogurt layer.
  4. Step 4: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 2–3 hours, or until the yogurt bark is completely frozen and set.

  6. Step 6: Enjoy immediately or store the pieces in an airtight container in the freezer.

Tips & Variations

  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less honey or sweetener according to your taste.
  • For extra crunch, add chopped nuts or freeze-dried fruit on top before freezing.
  • Store pieces between parchment paper to avoid sticking when frozen.

Storage

Store the yogurt bark pieces in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Keep them in a single layer or separated by parchment paper to prevent sticking. To enjoy, simply eat frozen or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften.

  • 3.5 tbsp key lime juice
  • 2 tbsp powdered swerve (or substitute 1 tbsp honey)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (regular or dairy-free)

Toppings

  • 1/3 cup crushed gluten-free graham crackers (Simple Mills Honey Cinnamon Sweet Thins recommended)

  2. Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This will make it easy to remove the yogurt bark once frozen.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with your preferred dairy-free yogurt and use a dairy-free protein powder.
  • Adjust sweetness according to taste by varying the amount of powdered swerve or honey.
  • Store the yogurt bark in the freezer in an airtight container to maintain freshness and texture.
  • Use key lime juice for authentic flavor; regular lime juice can be substituted but will alter the taste slightly.
  • The protein powder adds extra nutrition and creaminess but can be omitted if desired.
