Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Blueberry Swirl

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Blueberry Swirl: Combine fresh or frozen blueberries with lemon juice and honey in a small saucepan. Simmer gently until the berries break down and form a luscious compote. Let it cool completely before swirling into your batter.
  2. Mix the Yogurt and Oats: In a mixing bowl, blend Greek yogurt, rolled oats, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and evenly combined. This mixture will be the creamy base that holds the bars together with the perfect texture.
  3. Assemble the Bars: Pour half of the yogurt-oat mixture into a lined baking dish, then dollop spoonfuls of the cooled blueberry compote on top. Using a knife or skewer, gently swirl the blueberries into the base. Top with the remaining yogurt-oat mixture and smooth out evenly.
  4. Freeze and Set: Cover the dish and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until firm. Once frozen, use the parchment paper to lift the slab out and cut it into individual bars.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier bars that hold together better when frozen.
  • Chill the blueberry compote before adding it to the yogurt mixture to keep a pretty marbled effect.
  • Avoid over-mixing to prevent the bars from becoming too dense.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper for easy removal and neat cutting.
  • Cut bars while partially frozen—let them thaw for 5-10 minutes before slicing to prevent cracking.
