Scale
Yogurt Base
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional, to sweeten)
Toppings
- Fresh strawberries, sliced (about 1/2 cup)
- Crushed vanilla wafers or shortbread cookies (about 1/4 cup)
- Whipped cream or vanilla granola (optional, to garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Yogurt Base: In a bowl, add 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt. Stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons of honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter taste, mixing thoroughly until combined.
- Add Fresh Strawberries: Slice fresh strawberries and evenly layer them on top of the yogurt, distributing about half a cup for freshness and natural sweetness.
- Sprinkle the Crunch: Crush vanilla wafers or shortbread cookies into small pieces and sprinkle approximately a quarter cup over the strawberries for that delightful shortcake texture.
- Garnish and Serve: Finish by adding a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of vanilla granola on top for extra flavor and texture. Serve immediately to maintain freshness and crunch.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness.
- The honey or maple syrup is optional; adjust sweetness according to your preference.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the vanilla wafers or cookies with gluten-free alternatives or granola.
- Serve immediately after assembling to keep the cookie crunch intact.
- This recipe serves one but can be easily scaled up for more servings.
