Greek Yogurt With Granola

This Greek yogurt with granola is a perfect way to start the day! A healthy and delicious breakfast that's ready in less than 5 minutes.

I love making this for breakfast when I'm in a rush, or I sometimes have it as a snack in the late afternoon. Yogurt bowls are really nourishing and filling.

Here in Greece, Greek yogurt with honey and walnuts is really popular. Some restaurants will serve it after a meal.

Personally, I love Greek yogurt with fruit and honey and now I love it with homemade granola clusters , too!

If you have never tried granola and Greek yogurt together, it's a wonderful flavor combination.

Also, if you like yogurt with fruit, in general, I think you'll love granola with Greek yogurt, too.

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS RECIPE

Ingredients for Greek yogurt with granola

• Yogurt: I always use plain Greek yogurt. My favorite is Fage 2%, because it's thick, it's not full-fat, and it tastes fantastic. You could also make this recipe with fruit yogurt and granola.
• Granola: For this granola yogurt bowl, I use my own granola recipe, which is refined sugar free. It's delicious, healthy, and tastes a lot better than store bought granola.
• Fruit: I love Greek yogurt and fruit! I use a banana, but you could add your favorite fruit. Fresh berries would be a good option, too, especially blueberries.
• Honey: I drizzle some organic Greek honey on top, but you could add some maple syrup, instead, if you prefer.

Recipe Notes

TOPPINGS & SERVING OPTIONS

There are so many ways you can enjoy Greek yogurt with granola! Here are a few ways you can customize this granola yogurt bowl recipe:

• Add your favorite nuts and seeds for more texture, like chopped walnuts, pecans, pistachios, or chia seeds.
• Instead of honey, you add some maple syrup or peanut butter on top.
• You could also add some dried fruit, like raisins or cranberries.

MAKE-AHEAD IDEAS

Make Greek yogurt parfaits. You can do this 1-2 days ahead. Just layer your bowl or mason jars with Greek yogurt and then fruit and keep it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Add the granola right before serving so that it stays crunchy.

Host a brunch yogurt parfait bar. This would be a wonderful idea for a brunch or special occasions, like a baby shower! You can put the granola, yogurt, and other toppings in bowls and the fruit on nice trays. You can have mason jars or cute jars for your guests to make their own parfaits.

TIPS FOR SUCCESS

• Prep your fruit. If you're using other fruit besides bananas, you'll save a lot of time by pre-washing them and patting them dry with a kitchen towel before storing them in the refrigerator.
• Add the granola at the right time. Since granola retains a lot of moisture, the longer it's with the yogurt, the softer it gets. I suggest adding the granola to the yogurt right before you eat it, so that it remains crunchy.

Baking Measurements

I have used weight measurements for all the recipes on this website. Even though I have also included American volume measurements for convenience, I highly recommend using a digital kitchen scale to weigh all ingredients for the most accurate measurements. Digital kitchen scales are more precise than cups, which is so important in baking, and they give the most accurate, consistent results. Happy baking!
