Description
A refreshing, high‑protein frozen bark inspired by key lime pie—creamy Greek yogurt mixed with protein powder and zesty lime, topped with crunchy graham crumbs and coconut, then frozen into bark pieces.
Ingredients
- 2½ cups plain Greek yogurt (non‑fat or low‑fat; can substitute dairy‑free)
- 3½ tbsp key lime juice
- 2 tbsp powdered Swerve (or substitute 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp lime zest
- ⅓ cup crushed (gluten‑free) graham crackers
- ¼ cup toasted unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (regular or dairy‑free)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, key lime juice, protein powder, powdered Swerve (or chosen sweetener), vanilla extract, and lime zest. Mix until smooth.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat. Spread the yogurt mixture into a thin, even layer.
- Sprinkle crushed graham crackers, toasted coconut flakes, and additional lime zest evenly over the top.
- Freeze for at least 2–3 hours, or until fully set.
- Once frozen, remove from freezer, lift the parchment or mat, and break into bark pieces.
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer (up to 2 weeks), layering pieces with parchment to prevent sticking.
Notes
- For a less icy texture, use full‑fat Greek yogurt—though light versions still taste great.
- This recipe is gluten‑free, and can easily be made dairy‑free by choosing appropriate yogurt and protein powder.
- Customize toppings—try fresh berries, nut butter, dark chocolate chips, granola, or nuts.
- Store in a single layer or separate layers with parchment paper in the freezer for best texture.
