Description

This Pumpkin Pie Low Carb Yogurt Bark is a delicious, creamy, and healthy dessert that combines the rich flavors of pumpkin pie spices with the smoothness of Greek yogurt. Perfectly sweetened with maple syrup and topped with crunchy pecans and dark chocolate chips, this vegan-friendly, gluten-free treat is easy to prepare and ideal for a refreshing frozen snack or dessert.

Ingredients

Scale

Yogurt Mixture

  • 3 cups plain Greek yogurt (full fat) or dairy-free alternative for vegan
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup, honey, or sugar-free syrup (add more in 1 tbsp increments if desired)
  • Optional: 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder

Toppings

  • 3 tablespoons chopped pecans
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (use dairy-free if vegan)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and maple syrup until smooth. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness as needed by adding more syrup in small increments.
  3. Spread Mixture: Evenly spread the yogurt mixture onto the prepared baking sheet to about 1/2 inch thickness. This ensures quick and even freezing.
  4. Add Toppings: Sprinkle chopped pecans and dark chocolate chips evenly over the spread yogurt mixture.
  5. Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 2 to 4 hours or until the bark is completely solid.
  6. Break and Store: Once frozen, break the bark into pieces or cut with a knife. Store the pieces in the freezer until ready to eat.

Notes

  • Dairy Free/Vegan: Substitute Greek yogurt with a non-dairy yogurt alternative and use dairy-free chocolate chips like Enjoy Life brand.
  • Freezing Tips: Maintain a thickness of 1/2 inch on the baking sheet for faster and more even freezing. Thicker layers freeze slower and might not set properly.
  • Low Sugar Option: Use sugar-free syrup instead of maple syrup and keto-friendly chocolate chips such as Lily’s to reduce sugar content, making this recipe keto-friendly.
  • Nut-Free Option: Omit pecans if you have a nut allergy or prefer nut-free snacks.
  • Storage: Keep yogurt bark stored in the freezer until ready to serve for maximum freshness and texture.
