FAQs
Can I use low-fat or non-fat yogurt instead of full-fat?
Yes, you can use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt. However, full-fat yogurt will provide a creamier texture and richer flavor in the frozen bark.
How do I prevent the yogurt bark from sticking to the parchment paper?
Make sure to use a good quality parchment paper and allow the bark to freeze completely before removing. Gently lifting the edges will help it come off easily without sticking.
