Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (your choice of plain or flavored)

1 cup mixed berries (choose from fresh or frozen strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust according to your sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

A pinch of salt

1/4 cup granola (optional: for added crunch and texture)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mixed Berries: If you’re using frozen berries, allow them to thaw slightly at room temperature or directly in the microwave for about 30 seconds. For fresh berries, rinse them under cold water and pat dry. If your strawberries are large, chop them into smaller pieces for even distribution.

    Blend the Yogurt Mixture: In a high-powered blender or a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. Taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or syrup.

      Fold in Berries: Once the yogurt mixture is ready, gently fold in the mixed berries using a spatula. If you prefer some texture in your bars, reserve a few whole berries to add to the mix later.

        Prepare the Mold: Take an 8x8-inch square baking dish or a silicone mold and line it with parchment paper. Ensure there’s some overhang on the sides, which will help you lift the bars out later.

          Layer the Mixture: Pour the yogurt and berry mixture into the prepared dish, using a spatula to spread it out evenly. If you’re including granola, sprinkle it over the top now for an extra crunch that contrasts beautifully with the creamy base.

            Freeze: Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Place it in the freezer and allow it to set for at least 4-6 hours, or until the mixture is completely firm and solid.

              Cut into Bars: Once frozen through, remove the dish from the freezer. Use the parchment overhang to lift out the entire block of yogurt. Place it on a cutting board and cut into squares or rectangles of your desired size.

                Serve and Enjoy: These delightful bars can be enjoyed right away or individually wrapped in parchment paper and stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one month. Enjoy refreshing bites any time you crave something sweet!
