Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat recommended)
Fresh Fruits
- 1/2 cup mixed fresh fruits (such as sliced bananas, berries, mango, pineapple, kiwi)
Crunchy Toppings
- 1/4 cup nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans), chopped and lightly toasted
- 2 tablespoons seeds (chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, or sunflower seeds)
- 1/4 cup granola (optional)
Natural Sweeteners
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
Optional Extras
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoon nut butter (almond or peanut butter) for variation
Instructions
- Choose Your Base: Spoon a generous amount of chilled Greek yogurt into a bowl. This thick and creamy base provides the bowl’s signature texture and protein boost.
- Add Fresh Fruit: Top with your favorite fresh fruits such as sliced bananas, berries, or diced mango to add natural sweetness, juiciness, and bright colors.
- Sprinkle Crunchy Toppings: Scatter chopped nuts, seeds, or granola over the fruit to add texture and healthy fats that balance the sweetness.
- Drizzle Natural Sweeteners: Lightly drizzle honey or maple syrup over the toppings to boost flavor without masking the tanginess of the yogurt.
- Final Touches: Add any optional extras like chia seeds, a pinch of cinnamon, or coconut flakes to enhance the taste and nutritional value.
Notes
- Pick full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier, more satisfying bowl.
- Use seasonal fruit for better taste and freshness.
- Lightly toast nuts to bring out their flavor and add crunch.
- Layer toppings thoughtfully, placing heavier items first to prevent fruits from becoming soggy.
- Keep ingredient portions balanced for lasting energy, combining protein, fruits, and healthy fats.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but fresh is best.
- Freezing the bowl is not recommended as texture changes when thawed.
- Enjoy the bowl cold or at room temperature; reheating is not advised.
