Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 cups plain Greek yogurt (or your preferred flavored yogurt)

1 cup granola (for crust and topping)

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches, honey (or maple syrup), fresh lemon juice, and pure vanilla extract. Gently toss the peaches until they are well-coated in the mixture. Allow them to marinate for about 10 minutes, which will enhance their natural flavors and sweetness.

    Make the Crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the granola, melted unsalted butter, packed brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking pan lined with parchment paper, creating a solid crust.

      Create the Yogurt Layer: In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with an additional tablespoon of honey or your preferred sweetener (this step is optional, depending on how sweet you like your yogurt). Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the crust layer in the baking pan, smoothing it out with a spatula to create a uniform layer.

        Layer with Peaches: Carefully spoon the marinated peach mixture over the yogurt layer, spreading it out evenly to distribute the peaches throughout the yogurt layer.

          Freeze: Cover the baking pan with plastic wrap or a tight-fitting lid. Place the pan in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until the bars are completely frozen and set.

            Slice and Serve: Once the bars are fully frozen, lift them out of the pan using the edges of the parchment paper. Use a sharp knife to slice them into squares or bars. For a delightful finishing touch, sprinkle some extra granola on top before serving to add a satisfying crunch. Enjoy your refreshingly fruity Frozen Yogurt Peach Pie Bars!
