Jump to Recipe

Indulge these Strawberry Yogurt Bars, a delicious blend of fresh strawberries, creamy yogurt and a crispy oat crust. Enjoy a tasty dessert that’s also healthy.

This deliciously layered dessert combines tartness of strawberries with the smoothness of yogurt, all nestled on a crispy oat foundation.

When you bake these bars, your kitchen will be filled with the exciting aroma of strawberry sweetness. Our secret ingredient that elevates these bars is vanilla, as the addition of pure vanilla elevates the fragrance and adds more creaminess and flavor to the strawberry bars.

Creamy Greek yogurt mixed with cooled strawberry creates a velvety, indulgent layer that complements the crispy crust. Pour this delightful mixture onto the crust and top it with the remaining fresh strawberries.
