Easy 5-ingredient Frozen Yogurt Bars made with yogurt, peanut butter, and naturally sweetened with banana. Packed with protein and no added sugar! A refreshing healthy snack for kids and adults alike.

Creamy, dreamy, gorgeous yogurt bars that are naturally sweetened and come together in five minutes...am I the snack fairy or what?!
No bake recipes are simply everything right now. The best part about this foolproof recipe is that you likely have all the ingredients on hand, hallelujah! I can't wait for you to cool off with one of these gems.
Key ingredient notes
- Yogurt: I developed this recipe with plain, unsweetened, whole milk (full fat) yogurt best here. The fat really helps create an ideal creamy, less icy texture. I tested this with Greek yogurt and that works too for a higher protein treat!
- Peanut butter: This adds crave-worthy flavor and contributes to the creamy texture (more fat, yes!), so don't skip it.
- Banana: Most frozen yogurt bars are sweetened with sugar but I went a different route and did fruit instead! The subtle sweetness and texture change is bomb.
Let's make it!
Make it your own!
Whether you're looking to substitute the nut butter or try different fruit, the sky is the limit here. If you're adding fruit, fresh or frozen works--just chop it into bite size pieces for seamless slicing.
- Chunky monkey: Fold in chopped walnuts and chocolate chips.
- Coconut almond: Use almond butter and fold in shredded coconut.
- Lemon blueberry: Swap in cashew butter and fold in lemon zest and fresh blueberries.
- Chocolate strawberry: Swap in almond butter and add cocoa powder, a splash of maple syrup, extra vanilla, and sliced strawberries.
- Flavored yogurt: Feel free to use vanilla yogurt if you want sweeter bars.

Description
Easy 5-ingredient Frozen Yogurt Bars made with yogurt, peanut butter, and naturally sweetened with banana. Packed with protein and no added sugar! A refreshing healthy snack for kids and adults alike. Prep time does not include freezing.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain whole milk yogurt*
- ½ cup natural peanut butter (or any nut/seed butter)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 medium ripe banana, sliced (or ½ cup berries of choice)
Instructions
- Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. (Alternatively, you can use a rimmed baking sheet and make thinner "yogurt bark.")
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt, peanut butter, cinnamon and vanilla. Taste mixture. It will be tart. If you'd like it sweeter, add 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup. Fold in sliced banana.
- Spoon mixture into prepared pan and use a rubber spatula to smooth the top. Add any toppings you fancy (granola, pecans, chocolate chips, etc). Place in freezer and freeze for about 3 hours, or until set.
- Once frozen, slice into 8-10 bars. Let bars sit for 5 minutes at room temperature before serving so they're easier to eat. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Notes
NUT FREE: Use tahini or sunflower seed butter.
*Using a high fat yogurt will result in the best flavor and texture. Greek yogurt also works.

I put my frozen yogurt bars in a popsicle mold - easier to eat them on a stick.

Smart thinking!
Rebecca says
Curious if pb powder will substitute well? Is the pb mostly about flavor or the fat and consistency for the texture?
Alexis Joseph, MS, RD says
Def want the fat from PB!
Kristina J says
I made these and they are yummy! thanks for the recipe
Shirley says
Can I use powder peanut butter mixed with water to equal half a cup in place of jar peanut butter, or do I need the fat in the jar peanut butter? Sounds delicious!
Alexis Joseph says
I haven't tried it so I can't say for sure, but I would recommend peanut butter!
Kristina J says
I used 1/2 c peanut butter powder and 6T water and they turned out great!
Alexis Joseph says
So glad, thank you Kristina!!
Jill says
Made these for my teething 1yr old and she devoured them!!
Alexis Joseph says
Amazing, best news Jill!!
Viktoriya says
Thank you for this recipe. This was a nice solution for my sweet cravings, despite not being super sweet. I didn't have banana, but your alternative of strawbs/cacao/almond butter and adding choco chips/sliced almonds made this so tasty. It was pretty messy to eat, so next time I'll just stick em with popsicle sticks.
Alexis Joseph says
Thanks so much for your review! I love the strawberry variation. Agreed that they're a bit messy, let me know how the popsicles turn out!
Lu says
Really easy, healthy, fun for summer. To heck with the kids how about for grandma!! I added rasberries and maple syrup.
Alexis Joseph, MS, RD says
Love it!
Dylan says
Perfect summer treat! I used Siggi's 3.25% 🙂
Alexis Joseph says
Yayyyy, Siggi's is the bomb!
Alexis Joseph says
Yayyy thank you so much!!
