Chocolate Covered Pomegranate Yogurt Clusters - the perfect healthy dessert for winter. These clusters are no bake and easy to make. They can also be adjusted to any dietary preferences and easily be made vegan or not.
These bites taste like healthy ice cream bites, or frozen yogurt bites. They can also be made high protein if you use greek yogurt.
I love no bake desserts! For no bake desserts try my no bake tahini oatmeal bars or my pomegranate clusters.

Ingredients for healthy chocolate covered frozen yogurt bites
- pomegranate - This is the base for the cluster but any fruit can be used!
- yogurt - Regular or vegan yogurt can be used here. I used dairy free Cocojune and it came out great!
- cashew butter - Feel free to sub this out for your favorite nut butter. I love cashew butter for its neutral taste.
- chocolate chips - I like dark chocolate but any technically works.
- coconut oil - coconut oil helps the chocolate to melt easier.
See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.
Substitutions
- cashew butter - can be subbed with any nut butter.
- yogurt - use vegan or regular yogurt here.
- coconut oil - This can be omitted but it does help the chocolate to melt easier.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Mix pomegranate, yogurt and cashew butter.
Freeze clusters.
Dip in chocolate and freeze again.
Serve.
Storage instructions
I recommend storing the clusters in the fridge in a sealed container for up to 3 days because this gives them the soft ice cream like texture.
You can also freeze them for 3 months and thaw them out as you want to eat them.
Recipe Pro-Tips
Make sure your clusters are full frozen before dipping them in chocolate. Otherwise they will melt and create a whole mess.
If you want to up the protein content use greek yogurt as your yogurt.
Recipe FAQS
It depends what kind of yogurt you use. If you use dairy free yogurt then they are vegan!
Pomegranate is full of antioxidants and fiber. They also contain vitamins such as vitamin c, folate and potassium.

You can store them in the freezer if you want to keep them long term, however if you are planning to eat them within 1 week they can be stored in the fridge
