What You’ll Need

Here is what you’ll need to make these strawberry yogurt bars:

Ingredients to make strawberry yogurt bars.
  • Greek Yogurt: The base of these ice cream bars. Make sure to use full-fat whole-milk Greek yogurt and not low-fat Greek yogurt to ensure that the bars are creamy in texture and not icy when frozen.
  • Strawberries: Strawberries add sweetness, fruitiness, and that bright pink color to these bars. Opt for strawberries that are juicy and ripe for the best natural sweetness.
  • Maple Syrup: Source of sweetness for the yogurt base. Start with 1 tablespoon and add more as desired, depending on your preference and the ripeness of your berries.
  • Chocolate Chips: Melted to dip the bars into. Add in a little coconut oil to help the chocolate chips melt more easily.

See the recipe card below for full information on ingredients and quantities.

Recipe Substitutions & Additions

  • Greek Yogurt: The Greek yogurt may be replaced with 1 can of full-fat coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
  • Strawberries: The strawberries may be replaced with your favorite berries! Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or a mix of all would be great swaps.
  • Maple Syrup: The maple syrup may be replaced with equal parts honey.
  • Freeze-dried Strawberries: An optional ingredient that can be crushed and sprinkled on top of the bars for a fun topping.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Steps to make strawberry yogurt bars.

STEP 1: Add the Greek yogurt, strawberries, and maple syrup to a high-powered blender and blend until completely smooth (Images 1 & 2). You’ll want to blend it well to ensure that all of the strawberries are fully broken down and smooth.

STEP 2: Place ice cream molds on top of a baking tray for easy transferring and pour the strawberry yogurt filling evenly into ice cream molds (Image 3). Place the molds in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours, or until the bars are completely frozen.

STEP 3: Once you’re ready to dip the bars, add the chocolate chips to a bowl or cup along with 1 to 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Microwave the chocolate for 30 seconds and stir it. Microwave in 10-second increments, stirring in between each time until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth (Image 4). You’ll want to make sure the chocolate is completely liquid and smooth, so add a little more coconut oil if needed.

STEP 4: Dip each frozen bar into the melted chocolate and place the dipped bars onto a parchment paper-lined pan (Image 5). You can dip the bars fully, halfway, or just drizzle a little chocolate on top of the bars. Sprinkle with crushed freeze-dried strawberries if desired (Image 6).

Storage Instructions

Place the dipped bars back in the freezer for 10 minutes so that they fully harden. Once hardened, store the bars in an airtight, freezer-safe container to prevent freezer burn. I recommend placing some parchment paper between the bars (or wrapping them separately in parchment paper) to prevent sticking. Let the bars sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.

Tips For Success

  • Make sure to use full-fat, whole milk Greek yogurt and not low-fat Greek yogurt so that the bars are creamy when frozen and not icy in texture.
  • Use a high-powered blender to make sure that the nuts are fully blended and smooth. I love using this nutribullet blender.
  • Make sure that the bars are completely frozen in the ice cream molds before dipping them into the chocolate mixture. If the bars are melting, the chocolate will not stick properly to the bars, so keep them in the freezer right until you’re ready to dip.
  • If you prefer to use less chocolate, you can either dip the bars halfway or drizzle a little chocolate on top of the bars.

Recipe FAQs

Can I use a different type of yogurt other than Greek yogurt?

I find that low-fat Greek yogurt freezes into an icy texture that isn’t as creamy to bite into, so for that reason, I recommend using full-fat whole milk Greek yogurt. For a dairy-free option, opt for a thick, Greek-style dairy-free yogurt or swap it with unsweetened coconut cream.

Can I use frozen strawberries?

Yes! Frozen strawberries may be a little more difficult to blend with the Greek yogurt, so I recommend letting them thaw at room temperature for a few minutes before blending.
