Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt full-fat preferred for creaminess
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh berries blueberries, strawberries, or your choice
  • 1 teaspoon honey optional, for sweetness
  • 2 tablespoons granola honeyed or plain
  • 1 tablespoon nuts toasted almonds or walnuts, chopped

Equipment

  • Small jar or container
  • Spoon
  • Small knife
  • Lid

Method
 

  1. Start by spooning half of the Greek yogurt into your small jar, smoothing it out with the back of the spoon to create an even base.
  2. Next, wash and slice your fresh berries if needed, then add a layer of 2-3 tablespoons over the yogurt, creating a vibrant, colorful band.
  3. Drizzle about a teaspoon of honey over the fruit layer for a gentle sweetness that glazes the berries.
  4. Add a tablespoon of crunchy granola on top of the honey to introduce a satisfying crunch and aroma.
  5. Sprinkle chopped toasted nuts over the granola for an added warm, smoky flavor and extra crunch.
  6. Repeat the layers by adding the remaining yogurt, then top with a few more berries and a final drizzle of honey if desired.
  7. Seal the jar tightly with the lid and give it a gentle shake or a quick stir to evenly distribute the ingredients if you prefer.
  8. Place in the fridge if not immediately enjoyed, or serve right away for a fresh, colorful, and crunchy snack.
