Here's a simple frozen yogurt bark that we all love - made with matcha tea powder. This 5 ingredient keto yogurt bark comes together with 3 minutes prep! It is a refreshing, tasty low carb dessert that's great for sharing.
I am in love with sugar free frozen yogurt and make it A LOT. But have you tried frozen yogurt bark? It's the quick 'n' easy little sister of frozen yogurt.
I've been making frozen yogurt bark for the kids for years. I use Greek yogurt as a base, and then add whatever topping we have in the house: strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, coconut flakes, nuts, chocolate chips.
One day, I had the idea to flavour my yogurt with matcha powder. And you know what? It is delicious!

Instructions
It is so easy to make matcha frozen yogurt bark. Here are the basic steps. Scroll down to the recipe card for a detailed method and nutrition information.
1.) Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2.) In a bowl, stir together Greek yogurt, allulose, matcha powder and vanilla extract.
3.) Spread the mixture onto the parchment paper and add the pistachios.
4.) Freeze until solid, then break into bite-sized or larger pieces and serve.
Variations
You can use any nuts you have in the house - hazelnuts, almonds, walnut pieces or pecans. I chose the pistachios because I wanted to stick with the green theme.
Berries also work well with matcha yogurt - I have tried this recipe with both blueberries and blackberries.
Instead of allulose you could also use stevia drops or sugar free syrup.
Recipe FAQs
You can churn the matcha yogurt mixture in an ice cream maker. An even easier method is to freeze the mixture in ice cube trays. Then, blend the cubes in a high-speed blender.
Of course. You can sweeten the frozen yogurt with honey or maple syrup.
Storage
Store your matcha frozen yogurt bark in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
It needs to be eaten straight from the freezer.
Health Benefits Of Matcha
Matcha is a stone-ground powdered green tea used in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies.
Apart from being high in antioxidants, matcha boosts brain function, promotes heart health and speeds up the metabolism.
Ever since I found out that 1 cup of matcha tea delivers the same amount of antioxidants as 10 cups of regular tea, I've been ordering matcha powder in bulk. Friends, from a certain age onwards we need all the help we can get!
My go-to hot drink is almond matcha latte, which I prepare with frothed unsweetened almond milk.
If you like matcha, you'll know that you can use matcha in all kinds of desserts, from matcha cakes to matcha mousse to matcha ice cream. Don't miss this recipe for Matcha Chocolates on my website!

Hi...I am assuming this is something with a soft consistency , and that it does not stay hard like 'bark' correct?
Katrin
Yes, you have to eat it frozen.

Where can I find Xylitol?
Katrin
A good bet is always Amazon. You can also look in Health Food Stores such as Wholefoods or Planet Organic (in the UK). When you choose a brand, check that it's actually made from birch and not from GM-corn. Instead of xylitol, you can also but Erythritol, which is also a sugar alcohol and tastes the same. I use a brand called Sukrin at them moment (you can purchase their products on their own website and on Amazon - my favourite is Sukrin gold, which tastes like brown sugar). Xylitol and erythritol have the same taste and benefits, they both come in granulated and powdered form (like icing sugar).

Could you tell me some good brands of Full Fat Greek Yoghurt. I can only find sweetened yogurts/Greek yogurts where I live. So hard to find sugar free Greek yoghurt/yogurt. Thank you. Moving to Houston, TX hoping to find good yogurts.
Katrin
Fage is a brand that is available in the UK. I just checked on Amazon.com and you can get it there, too - so you might be able to find it in your local supermarket

I would substitute sour cream for the yogurt. I no longer eat yogurt because of the relatively high lactose (milk sugar content.
Katrin
You could do this, of course! It would make the bark super creamy - and you'd have sour cream bark and not yoghurt bark, obviously 🙂
Susie
Will other nuts or seeds work?
Katrin
Hi Susie, of course. I mainly chose the pistachios because they are green! Just experiment and use what you have in your cupboard.
Elizabeth
Can I replace xylitol from same amount of raw honey or stevia?
Katrin
You can replace the xylitol 1:1 with honey. The stevia I have used before was twice as sweet as sugar (and xylitol), so you should definitely check the pack and take it from there.

Hi! I'm curious - I made yoghurt bark over the weekend and it melts so quickly once I take it out of the freezer. It's delicious - but I'm wondering if yours is the same? I'm with you though - save a bowl to eat straight away before it goes in the freezer 🙂

This is so pretty! And a really cool idea 🙂 love matcha!
