You guys know I love my bark recipes over here. And there is a reason why banana bark, date bark and the Healthy 4-ingredient Strawberry Banana Bark. And now these Fruit Bark Clusters! They’re all so delicious and satisfy our sweet tooth but in a healthier way.
These bark clusters that I made is a combo of the banana bark and strawberry bark. And it has the added crunch in it which you know I love. It has a base layer of sliced strawberries, blueberries and banana then I add some cereal, granola then melted chocolate, peanut butter and some coconut flakes on top too.
The flavors in these bark clusters is sooo good. And it’s a recipe you will want to keep stocked up in your freezer. I love having recipes like these on hand for when I am craving something sweet. And this is such a healthy dessert and the only added sugar is from the chocolate chips.
I know you guys will love this recipe as much as we do. I cannot wait to hear what you think! My 5 year old and 3 year old are obsessed. So good for a post lunch snack.
What ingredients you need to make Fruit Bark Clusters:
- Strawberries – fresh strawberries for this!
- Blueberries – I don’t recommend frozen here. Fresh works best
- Banana – sliced into rounds
- Creamy peanut butter – or use any creamy nut butter you prefer
- Cereal or granola of choice – I love adding this in for an extra crunch!
- Chocolate chips – dark, milk or semi-sweet all work for this. Use your favorite!
- For topping: cacao nibs, coconut flakes for more crunch!
How to make these delicious Fruit Bark Clusters:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and add strawberry slices, blueberries and banana to form a “flower” of sorts. Make sure they are all touching
- Then sprinkle some cereal across each cluster
- Melt chocolate chips in microwave (add coconut oil if needed) and melt in 30 second increments until melted (stir in between)
- Drizzle chocolate layer across the clusters
- Then drizzle peanut butter on top and sprinkle some cacao nibs or coconut flakes if using
- Add to freezer to set for at least 20 minutes then enjoy!
FAQs and tips on making these bark clusters:
- You can use any chocolate you’d like in this recipe. I usually use dark chocolate or semi-sweet but it is up to you!
- I recommend using drippy nut butter in this so it drizzles well. But you can also warm up the peanut butter too too to make it easier to spread.
- If you are allergic to peanut butter, you can also use any nut butter you want like almond butter, cashew butter or even tahini.
- How should I store these clusters? Keep this in the freezer for 2 months or fridge for 7 days!
- Can I make this even lower in sugar? Sure! Use chocolate without added sugar if you want.
