Ingredients
Granola Base
- 3/4 cup oats
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 3-4 tbsp honey (depending on desired sweetness)
- 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
Filling and Topping
- 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt*
- Berries of choice, to top
Instructions
- Prepare the granola dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the oats, cinnamon, almond butter, honey, and vanilla bean paste. Stir everything together until it forms a sticky dough. If the mixture feels too dry, gradually add a bit more almond butter and honey to achieve a sticky, moldable consistency.
- Form the granola cups: Line a muffin pan with paper liners. Take a spoonful of the granola dough and press it firmly into the bottom of each muffin cup, ensuring it forms a sturdy and even base.
- Add yogurt and berries: Spoon the Greek yogurt evenly into each granola cup. Top each cup with fresh berries and sprinkle any leftover granola over the top for extra texture and flavor.
- Freeze to set: Place the filled muffin pan in the freezer for at least 4 hours to allow the yogurt cups to firm up completely. When ready to serve, let them thaw slightly for a few minutes for optimal taste and texture.
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture or low-fat Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
- Feel free to substitute berries with any other fruit you prefer, such as sliced bananas or kiwi.
- The granola base consistency is important; it should be sticky enough to hold shape but not too wet.
- Store leftover cups in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week.
