Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 ml) full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt
- ½ cup (about 75 g) mixed fresh berries (blueberries, sliced strawberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) honey or maple syrup (optional)
- ¼ cup (30 g) crunchy granola
- 1 teaspoon (5 g) chia seeds (optional)
- ½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) vanilla extract (optional)
- A pinch of lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
- Rinse the berries gently under cool water and pat dry. Slice strawberries into bite-sized pieces if using.
- In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt with vanilla extract and honey or maple syrup if using. Stir gently until smooth and slightly airy.
- Sprinkle in chia seeds and lemon zest if desired, mixing just enough to distribute evenly.
- Transfer the yogurt mixture into a serving bowl or jar. Arrange the mixed berries on top.
- Sprinkle granola over the berries for texture.
- Drizzle a little extra honey or maple syrup on top if a sweeter finish is desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy. For a silkier yogurt, stir in a splash of milk or almond milk. Use full-fat or 2% Greek yogurt for best creaminess. Frozen berries should be thawed slightly before use to avoid watery texture. The recipe is flexible for substitutions like dairy-free yogurt and different fruits or nuts.
