# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It freezes into the most satisfying texture—creamy inside with little crunchy pockets of fruit and nuts.
  • Takes barely ten minutes to assemble but tastes like you spent way more effort than you did.
  • Works perfectly when you're between meals but don't want something heavy sitting in your stomach.
02 -
  • The 1/4-inch thickness is crucial—any thicker and it doesn't break into bark, it just becomes a frozen slab you have to chip at with a knife.
  • Don't dice your apple until you're ready to spread the yogurt, or it'll start browning and lose that fresh crispness that makes this special.
03 -
  • Spread the yogurt slightly thinner at the edges if you like them extra crispy—they freeze faster and crack into the most satisfying shards.
  • A pinch of sea salt sprinkled with the cinnamon brings out all the other flavors in a way that feels almost like magic.
