Ingredients
  

2 cups Greek yogurt (choose plain or vanilla based on preference)

1/2 cup creamy almond butter

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness according to taste)

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

1/2 cup granola or finely chopped nuts (for a delightful crunch)

Optional toppings: Fresh berries, cocoa nibs, or shredded coconut for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and sea salt. Use a whisk or spatula to mix thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are fully integrated.

    Add Crunch: Carefully fold in the granola or chopped nuts into the yogurt mixture. Mix gently to ensure an even distribution without breaking down the crunchiness.

      Line and Pour: Take an 8x8 inch baking dish and line it with parchment paper, allowing the edges to hang over the sides for easy removal later. Pour the yogurt mixture into the lined dish. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly, ensuring it is flattened and smooth on top.

        Freeze the Mixture: Place the prepared baking dish into the freezer. Allow the mixture to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until it is solid and firm throughout.

          Cut into Squares: After the mixture has frozen completely, remove the dish from the freezer. Grasp the edges of the parchment paper to lift the frozen yogurt block out of the dish. Transfer it to a cutting board and, using a sharp knife, cut it into squares of your preferred size.

            Add Toppings: Just before serving, you can enhance the squares by sprinkling fresh berries, cocoa nibs, or shredded coconut on top for added flavor and visual appeal.

              Storage: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the freezer. These squares make for an ideal grab-and-go healthy snack!
