# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's ready to grab whenever you need something between meals, no thawing required.
  • Making it becomes weirdly meditative—the chopping and arranging feels more like play than cooking.
  • People are always surprised it's made with Greek yogurt when they taste how creamy and satisfying it is.
02 -
  • Don't skip pressing the toppings into the yogurt—if they sit on top loosely, they'll scatter everywhere when you try to break the bark into pieces.
  • Dice your apple right before spreading the yogurt, or toss it with a tiny squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning.
03 -
  • The thinner you spread the yogurt, the faster it freezes and the more consistently crisp it becomes throughout.
  • Chill your baking sheet in the freezer for ten minutes before spreading the yogurt if you're in a hurry—it cuts freezing time noticeably.
