Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose either plain or vanilla for your base)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness to your liking)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

¼ cup granola (for a delightful crunch, optional)

2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut (to enhance flavor and texture, optional)

A pinch of sea salt (for a finishing touch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Yogurt Mixture:

    In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Using a whisk or a spoon, stir the mixture thoroughly until it's smooth and completely blended.

      Line the Baking Tray:

        Take a baking sheet (or a flat tray) and line it with parchment paper. Leave some overhang on the edges to create handles for easy removal later.

          Spread the Yogurt:

            Pour the yogurt mixture directly onto the lined baking sheet. With the help of a spatula, spread it out evenly, aiming for about a ½ inch thickness across the entire surface.

              Add the Toppings:

                Distribute the sliced strawberries evenly over the yogurt layer. If you're opting for a crunch factor, sprinkle the granola and shredded coconut on top. Gently press down on the toppings using the spatula to ensure they adhere to the yogurt.

                  Freeze the Bark:

                    Carefully place the baking sheet in the freezer. Allow the yogurt to freeze for about 4 hours, or until it is completely solid and firm to the touch.

                      Break into Pieces:

                        After the yogurt has frozen, remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Use the overhanging parchment paper to lift the entire yogurt bark out of the tray. Break it into bite-sized pieces either by hand or with a sharp knife.

                          Serve and Enjoy:

                            For an extra touch, drizzle a little honey over the top of the bark, followed by a light sprinkle of sea salt. Serve immediately, or store the pieces in an airtight container in the freezer for a refreshing treat whenever you desire.
