Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (preferably full-fat, such as Fage Total 5% for creamy texture)
- 1 1/4 cup mixed berries (washed and patted dry)
- 1.5 tbsp peanut butter (creamy, such as Jif)
- 1/2 cup granola
- 1.5 tsp chia seeds
- 1/2 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Prepare Your Bowl and Components: Wash and pat the mixed berries completely dry using paper towels to prevent excess moisture from diluting the yogurt and keeping your bowl thick and creamy. While the berries dry, spoon the Greek yogurt into your serving bowl to create a smooth, even base. Using a thick Greek yogurt like Fage Total 5% helps maintain a creamy texture that stands up well against toppings.
- Layer and Finish the Bowl: Arrange the dried berries evenly over the yogurt base. Add small dollops or streaks of peanut butter across the surface for a rich protein boost and smooth texture. Sprinkle granola and chia seeds evenly over the top to add crunch and nutrition. Finish by drizzling honey evenly to bind the flavors and add a touch of natural sweetness. If your peanut butter is too thick, microwave it for about 10 seconds to ease spreading or swirling.
Notes
- Add granola just before eating to prevent sogginess and preserve crunch.
- Let the Greek yogurt sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before assembling for a creamier texture.
- Distribute honey and chia seeds evenly to get consistent flavor and nutrition in every bite.
- Substitutions: Use any nut butter or seed butter in place of peanut butter; swap berries with other fresh or frozen fruits like banana, mango, or apple; replace granola with your favorite cereal or toasted oats; dairy-free options include coconut or almond milk yogurt.
- Store yogurt and toppings separately for up to 3 days to maintain freshness when meal prepping.
