Ingredients

Yogurt Base

  • 1 cup plain nonfat or Greek yogurt (choose vanilla for sweetness)
  • 0.5 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder (optional, for extra protein)
  • 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
  • 0.5 cup granola (high-fiber cereal, toasted oats, or chopped nuts)
  • 0.5 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, if using plain yogurt)
  • a pinch cinnamon or lemon zest (optional, for brightness)
  • a small pinch salt (optional, enhances flavor)

Instructions 

  • Mix Greek yogurt with vanilla extract, salt, and whisk in protein powder until smooth. Add a splash of milk or water if needed.
  • Rinse berries, pat dry, and slice strawberries. Toss tart berries with honey and cinnamon if desired.
  • Layer a third of the yogurt in a glass, add berries, then granola. Repeat layers until full.
  • Finish with a dollop of yogurt, extra berries, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Add lemon zest for brightness.
  • Serve immediately for crunch or chill up to 24 hours for softer granola.

Notes

For extra flavor, use vanilla-flavored yogurt or add a sprinkle of nuts on top.
