Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 4 cups Yogurt (Greek or regular) Dairy-free options like coconut yogurt can be used.
  • 2 cups Fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, bananas, or other seasonal fruits) Choose fruits based on seasonality for best flavor.
  • 1 cup Granola Store-bought or homemade granola can be used.
  • 1/4 cup Honey or maple syrup Adjust sweetness based on fruit's natural sweetness.
  • 10 leaves Mint leaves For garnishing.

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Start by adding a scoop of yogurt at the bottom of your jars.
  2. Next, layer in a mix of fresh fruit, pressing lightly to create a compact layer.
  3. Follow with a sprinkle of granola for that much-needed crunch.
  4. Repeat the layering process until you reach the top of the jar.
  5. Finish with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup and a few mint leaves for garnish.
  6. Pop these in the fridge for a bit, then serve cool for a refreshing treat!

Notes

If there are leftovers, store in the fridge covered for up to two days. For best texture, keep granola separate until serving. Jars can be frozen if prepared ahead of time.
