How to Store
Once the monster yogurt bark has frozen, break it into pieces and place it in an airtight container. It will keep well in the freezer for up to 2 months.
Cooking with Kids
You can easily have your toddlers and kids help makes this rainbow yogurt bark.
TODDLERS
- Toddlers can help measure out and chop the fruit. We love this kid-safe knife for toddlers.
- Once blended, toddlers can help pour the yogurt mixture onto the baking sheet and spread out with a spoon or spatula.
- Their favorite part might be to help sprinkle the fruits and eyes on top.
- With help, they can place the yogurt bark into the freezer.
KIDS
- You can pretty much let older kids make this recipe by themselves.
- They can pick out and measure all of the ingredients and help cut up the fruit (this is my favorite kid-safe knife for kids).
- They can help to put the yogurt and spinach into the blender and press start. Talk to them about being careful of the sharp blades.
- Kids can pour the yogurt bark onto a baking sheet, spread out with a knife or spatula, sprinkle the fruits on top and place the finished yogurt bark into the freezer.
Tips
- Size of Baking Dish: you can use 9 x 9″, 9 x 13″ or any baking sheet you have on hand. The thickness of the bark will be determined by the size pan you use.
- Toppings: …don’t skimp! Cut the pieces of fruit into small evenly sized pieces so that it is easy to eat.
- Freezing Time: Let the bark freeze for at least 4 to 5 hours, but it’s best to freeze overnight if you can.
