There is not much better than a cool treat on a warm day. Even if it’s not hot, this simple frozen yogurt bark is still just as tasty. It is really fast to throw together at any time for a quick dessert or snack.
This recipe is a bit different than some other yogurt bark recipes because it is higher in proteins. With the healthy fats and proteins it is filling and feeding at any time of the day.
Homemade yogurt bark
Of course you have to start with yogurt. Homemade yogurt or bought in the store full of fat Greek yogurt will work. Low fat yogurt can make the yogurt bark taste too watery. If you use homemade yogurt, you might want to remove the extra whey first. This makes the yogurt a bit thicker and tastier. However, if you are in a hurry, it is really not necessary.
I also included cottage cheese in this recipe variation. It adds an extra creaminess and really increases the protein more. However, if you don’t have a cottage cheese, feel free to feel it to replace it with more yogurt. Our family loves the good culture brand, because it is fed with grass and full of probiotics.
Then there is the added collagen. Collagen not only supplies more proteins, but supports healthier hair, nails, joints and intestinal health. You also see colostrum in the ingredient list. Although it is optional, I like it that it adds benefits for the immune system, muscle recovery, metabolism and more.
Topping frozen yogurt bark
This is where the pleasure comes in! You can choose from almost every topping that you like. Here are some ideas to help you on your way.
- Fresh berries + muesli
- Peanut butter drizzle + melted chocolate (add after freezing)
- Chocolate chips + coconut flakes
- Chopped nuts + cinnamon
- Freeze-dried fruit + chia seeds
Even the smallest children can help to scatter the toppings. Change it, depending on what sounds good or what you have at hand.

Easy protein -rich yogurt bark
This delicious frozen yogurt bark contains many proteins for a filling snack. Adjust it with your favorite toppings!
In a blender or food processor, combine the yogurt, cottage cheese, nut butter, vanilla, protein powder, maple syrup, collagen and colostrum. Mix until smooth and creamy and scrape down the sides.
Cover a bordered 9 × 13 baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pour the mixture on the parchment and use a spatula to spread it evenly, about ½ inch thick.
Sprinkle your chosen toppings over the surface. My children are happy to help decorate the bark!
Place the baking tray for at least 2-3 hours in the freezer or until it is completely frozen.
Add the chocolate source (optional): once frozen, sprinkle with melted chocolate or peanut butter for an extra treat. It goes quickly on the cold bark.
Use your hands or a knife to break the bark into pieces.
