  In a glass or bowl, start with a layer of yogurt (about 1/3 of the cup). Add a layer of fruit on top of the yogurt. Sprinkle a layer of granola or nuts/seeds over the fruit. Repeat the layers until the glass or bowl is filled, finishing with a layer of yogurt or fruit on top.

• Serve:

  Enjoy immediately to keep the granola crunchy, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours if preparing ahead.

Notes

• Use seasonal fruits for the best flavour.
• For a vegan option, use plant-based yogurt and skip honey (use maple syrup instead).
• Experiment with different combinations of fruits, nuts, and seeds for variety.
