# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It's ridiculously simple—no baking, no special skills, just spreading and freezing.
  • You get that satisfying crunch and slight tartness of Greek yogurt with natural sweetness from the apples.
  • It actually feels like a treat but holds up as a legitimate breakfast or snack.
02 -
  • Don't use flavored yogurt—it sounds helpful but actually masks the delicate vanilla and cinnamon you're trying to build.
  • Wet apples will weep and turn mushy; make sure you dice them close to freezing time and pat them dry if needed.
  • Three hours is the minimum, but overnight is actually better—the bark becomes more crystalline and satisfying to snap.
03 -
  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt—it has a better texture and actually tastes better than non-fat, and the calories are worth it.
  • Press the toppings in while the yogurt is still soft so they freeze in place and don't tumble off when you snap the bark.
