Ingredients
Granola Base
- 3/4 cup oats
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 3-4 tbsp honey (adjust to desired sweetness)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Filling & Topping
- 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
- Berries of choice, for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Granola Dough: In a bowl, combine oats, cinnamon, almond butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until you achieve a sticky dough. If the mixture is too dry, add small amounts of almond butter and honey until it holds together well.
- Form Base Layers: Line a muffin pan with muffin liners. Take portions of the granola dough and firmly press them into the bottom of each muffin cup to create a sturdy, compact base layer.
- Add Yogurt and Toppings: Spoon generous amounts of Greek yogurt into each prepared granola base cup. Top with fresh berries and sprinkle any leftover granola dough on top for extra crunch and texture.
- Freeze: Place the muffin pan in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the cups are fully set and firm.
- Serve: Remove the frozen yogurt granola cups from the freezer and let them thaw slightly for a few minutes to soften before enjoying as a cool, nutritious treat.
Notes
- Adjust honey quantity based on your desired sweetness.
- Use any berries of your choice, such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries.
- These cups keep well in the freezer for up to 1 week.
- For a nut-free version, substitute almond butter with sunflower seed butter.
- Allow cups to thaw slightly before eating for a softer texture.
