On Wednesday, March 26, 2025, the Offices of Wellness and Human Resources sponsored a morning event of community, appreciation and celebration in the Student Lounge of the Alfond Center. A variety of healthy snacks were offered including fresh fruit, granola bars, and frozen yogurt bark. Fruit-shaped grocery bags from Hannaford were also distributed to the delight of attendees.
If you happened to miss the event, see the pictures below as well as the recipe for the Yogurt Bark. We hope to see you at our next event.
Frozen Yogurt Bark Recipe
Ingredients & substitutions
- Yogurt: Use a full fat yogurt for the best texture and flavor. Vanilla yogurt is a great base to use, but you can use any flavor you like.
- Fruit: Fresh strawberries and blueberries add a great pop of color and it’s a tasty way to get some fruit into your family’s diet. You can make this bark with other fresh fruits like mango, raspberries or kiwi fruit.
- Granola: Make your own or use any store-bought ones you like. You can also skip the granola and add something else crunchy like nuts, seeds, or even chocolate chips!
How to make yogurt bark
- Spread the yogurt evenly over a lined baking sheet.
- Top with chopped strawberries.
- Top with blueberries or any other fruits.
- Finish with granola and freeze until firm.
Tips for making frozen bark
- Use full fat yogurt. Using yogurt with full fat means that the texture will less likely get icy when frozen. It will also have a better taste that’s more creamy.
- Chop everything small. Small fruits like blueberries work very well here and chopping larger fruits to be about the size of blueberries helps with cutting the bark. Make sure the fruits are not too bulky either so the bark looks flat.
- Line your baking sheet. This will help to remove the bark easily from the tray, if you don’t line it, the yogurt will freeze to it and it will be really tough to remove. Use parchment or wax paper to line the entire surface of your sheet pan.
- Allow time for the bark to set. It will take around 3 hours for the bark to fully set in the freezer. Make it the night before to enjoy the next day.
