They are TRULY the perfect summer treat, and trust me I do not say this lightly! I’m talking easy to make, delicious to eat, and full of simple & healthy ingredients.

What you need for these Granola & Berries Frozen Yogurt Bars!
These bars are made up of three layers …. a granola base, a fresh berry middle, and a creamy yogurt top! All layers are absolutely delicious on their own and then when they come together it is pretty much perfection.
Granola Base
- Almond Butter: The base of this granola base is almond butter! I chose almond butter as my nut butter because I love the neutral flavor it provides, but you could totally swap this with peanut butter or cashew butter.
- Oats: A granola layer is of course going to need oats! I used old fashioned in these, but I’m sure other types of oats would work as well.
- Maple Syrup: Pure maple syrup will always & forever be one of my favorite refined sugar free sweeteners to use, but feel free to replace this with a different liquid sweetener of your choice such as honey.
- Applesauce: I love incorporating some unsweetened applesauce into my sweet treats. It adds some moisture & sweetness!
- Almond Milk: This granola base just calls for a splash of almond milk for some extra moisture.
- Lastly a splash of Vanilla Extract and a pinch of Salt for flavor.
Berry Filling
- Berries: I used a mix of raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries for these bars, but you could use any or all! Strawberries would also of course be delicious.
- Maple Syrup: A little bit of maple syrup is used again here to add to the natural sweetness of the berries.
Yogurt Layer
- Yogurt: I used plain greek yogurt in the frozen yogurt layer of these bars. Feel free to use any brand you like!
- Maple Syrup: Again for some sweetness!
- Vanilla Extract: Again for that delicious vanilla flavor!
